minus-square@too_high_for_thislinkEnglish4•edit-21 year agoNot even close. 100km/h = 27.8 m/s 27.8 m/s ÷ .956 s = 29.1 m/s^2 29.1m/s^2 ÷ 9.8m/s^2 = 2.96G
minus-squarenyoooomlinkEnglish2•1 year agoAh shit you’re right, I probably used 100m/s instead of km/h, makes so much more sense
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoNot sure that the acceleration curve is straight line, but because time is less than a second, it might not make that much difference to g-forces.
Not even close.
100km/h = 27.8 m/s
27.8 m/s ÷ .956 s = 29.1 m/s^2
29.1m/s^2 ÷ 9.8m/s^2 = 2.96G
