minus-squareramble81@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoHow many G-forces does the driver experience?!
minus-squarenyoooom@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down2·edit-21 year agoLooks like 10.65g, which is quite a lot but probably sustainable for a very short period of time and with training EDIT: I’M FUCKING WRONG AND USED m/s INSTEAD OF km/h
minus-squaretoo_high_for_this@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·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-squarenyoooom@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoAh shit you’re right, I probably used 100m/s instead of km/h, makes so much more sense
minus-squareHotzilla@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 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
