Rate of Change of Centrifugal Acceleration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Rate of Change of Centrifugal Acceleration = Velocity^3/(Length of Transition Curve*Radius for Transition Curve)
C = v_vehicle^3/(L_c*R_trans)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Rate of Change of Centrifugal Acceleration - (Measured in Meter per Cubic Second) - Rate of Change of Centrifugal Acceleration should be such that it will not cause discomfort to passengers.
Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity is the rate of change of distance of the vehicle with respect to time.
Length of Transition Curve - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Transition Curve is a curve in plan which is provided to change the horizontal alignment from straight to circular curve.
Radius for Transition Curve - (Measured in Meter) - Radius for Transition Curve is the radius at the point of transition curve of roadways.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Velocity: 28.23 Meter per Second --> 28.23 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Length of Transition Curve: 180 Meter --> 180 Meter No Conversion Required
Radius for Transition Curve: 300 Meter --> 300 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C = v_vehicle^3/(L_c*R_trans) --> 28.23^3/(180*300)

Evaluating ... ...

C = 0.4166188105

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.4166188105 Meter per Cubic Second --> No Conversion Required
