Arrow Force Calculator, Formula, Arrow Force Calculation

Arrow Force Calculator:

Enter the values of Mass of arrow m_(kg), Velocity of arrow V_(m/s)  & Stopping Distance d_(m) to determine the value of Arrow Force AF_(Newton) .

Arrow Force Formula:

The Arrow force  AF_(Newton) in Newton is equal to the 1/2 into multiply the Mass of arrow m_(kg) in kilogram and again multiply the Velocity of arrow V_(m/s) in meter per second and divided by the Stopping Distance d_(m) in meter.

The equation of Arrow force can be writtern as,

AF_(Newton) = 1/2 * m_(kg) * V²_(m/s) / d_(m)

Here,

AF_(Newton)  = Arrow force in Newton

m_(kg) = Mass of arrow in kilogram

V_(m/s) = Velocity of arrow in meter per second

d_(m) = Stopping Distance in meter

Example Problem for Arrow Force Calculation:

Calculate the Arrow force and given for the Mass = 2kg and Velocity = 24m/s and Distance = .3m

Answer

AF = 1/2 * m * V² / d

AF = 1/2 * 2 * 24² / .3

AF = 1920N.

Calculate the Stopping Distance and given for the Arrow force 1920N and the Mass = 2kg and Velocity = 24m/s.

Answer

AF = 1/2 * m * V² / d

1920 = 1/2 * 2 * 24² / d

d = .3m
