Tractive Effort Required for Linear and Angular Acceleration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Angular Accelration Tractive Effort = 27.88*Weight of Train*Acceleration of Train
F_ωα = 27.88*W*α
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Angular Accelration Tractive Effort - (Measured in Newton) - Angular Accelration Tractive Effort is the torque required to overcome the frictional and inertial forces acting against the vehicle's rotation about an axis.
Weight of Train - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Train is total weight of the train in tonns.
Acceleration of Train - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration of Train is the rate of change in velocity to the change in time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Train: 30000 Ton (Assay) (US) --> 875.000100008866 Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Acceleration of Train: 14.4 Kilometer per Hour Second --> 4.0000000000032 Meter per Square Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_ωα = 27.88*W*α --> 27.88*875.000100008866*4.0000000000032

Evaluating ... ...

F_ωα = 97580.0111530668

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

97580.0111530668 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

97580.0111530668 ≈ 97580.01 Newton <-- Angular Accelration Tractive Effort
