Cant Deficiency for given Theoretical Cant Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Cant Deficiency = Theoretical Cant-Equilibrium Cant
D_Cant = e_th-e_Cant
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Cant Deficiency - (Measured in Centimeter) - Cant Deficiency is the difference between the actual cant provided and equilibrium cant necessary for the maximum permissible speed on a curve.
Theoretical Cant - (Measured in Centimeter) - Theoretical Cant is the amount by which one rail is raised above the other rail.
Equilibrium Cant - (Measured in Centimeter) - Equilibrium cant is the amount by which one rail is raised above the other rail in equilibrium.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Theoretical Cant: 16.25 Centimeter --> 16.25 Centimeter No Conversion Required
Equilibrium Cant: 11.25 Centimeter --> 11.25 Centimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_Cant = e_th-e_Cant --> 16.25-11.25

Evaluating ... ...

D_Cant = 5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.05 Meter -->5 Centimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

5 Centimeter <-- Cant Deficiency

Equilibrium Cant in Railways

LaTeX Go Equilibrium Cant in Railways = Gauge of Track*Speed of Vehicle on Track^2/(127*Radius of Curve)

Equilibrium Cant for BG

LaTeX Go Equilibrium Cant for Broad Gauge = 1.676*Speed of Vehicle on Track^2/(127*Radius of Curve)

Radius for given Degree of Curve in Railways

LaTeX Go Radius of Curve = (1720/Degree of Curve for Railways)*(pi/180)

Degree of Curve in Railways

LaTeX Go Degree of Curve for Railways = (1720/Radius of Curve)*(pi/180)

Cant Deficiency for given Theoretical Cant Formula
