Tractive Effort Required to Overcome Effect of Gravity given Gradient during up Gradient Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Tractive Effort of Up Gradient = 98.1*Weight of Train*Gradient
F_up = 98.1*W*G
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Tractive Effort of Up Gradient - (Measured in Newton) - Tractive Effort of Up Gradient the tractive effort to overcome the effect of gravity is proportional to the weight of the vehicle & the sine of angle of the or gradient.
Weight of Train - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Train is total weight of the train in tonns.
Gradient - The Gradient is simply the product of the sine angle and constant 100 for the train. It is expressed in the percentage of the rise in meters in the track distance of 100 metres.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Weight of Train: 30000 Ton (Assay) (US) --> 875.000100008866 Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Gradient: 0.52 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_up = 98.1*W*G --> 98.1*875.000100008866*0.52

Evaluating ... ...

F_up = 44635.5051016523

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

44635.5051016523 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

44635.5051016523 ≈ 44635.51 Newton <-- Tractive Effort of Up Gradient
