strange physics question.. lol

as a part of a larger problem i need to convert 6.0m/s into g's. and one g = 9.8m/s^2.

to be honest im not sure if its even possible lol if i had 6m/s^2 it would obviously be easy, but i just dont know about this one!

help!

You're correct. It isn't possible. It's like trying to convert meters to liters ☺

Now.... If someone said, "How many g's does it take to accelerate to 6 m/s in x seconds........" That's a different question.

well you don't convert velocity into g's. You convert acceleration into g's.
