g-forces
I think the author had in mind acceleration and g-forces, although the two concepts are related.

cccccccc
g-force (with g from gravitational) is a measurement of the type of acceleration that causes weight.
Since g-force accelerations indirectly produce weight, any g-force can be described as a "weight per unit mass" (see the synonym specific weight).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force
ccccccc
This is a force that acts on a body as a result of acceleration or gravity and is described in units of acceleration equal to one G. For example, a 10 pound object undergoing a G-force of 5 G experiences 50 pounds of force. The force of gravity on Earth is used as a baseline for measuring these forces of acceleration.
