Speed Factor according to German Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Speed Factor = (Speed of Train^2)/30000
F_sf = (V_t^2)/30000
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Speed Factor - Speed Factor is a value which is used to change the static rail load to a dynamic rail load.
Speed of Train - (Measured in Kilometer per Hour) - Speed of Train is the rate at which the object covers a specific distance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Speed of Train: 149 Kilometer per Hour --> 149 Kilometer per Hour No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_sf = (V_t^2)/30000 --> (149^2)/30000

Evaluating ... ...

F_sf = 0.740033333333333

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.740033333333333 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.740033333333333 ≈ 0.740033 <-- Speed Factor
