Radial Acceleration Calculator
Enter the values of Tangential Acceleration At(m/s2) & Radius of Rotation r(m) to determine the value of Radial Acceleration Ar Ar(m/s2) .
Radial Acceleration Formula
The Radial Acceleration Ar(m/s2) in meter per second square is equal to the Tangential Acceleration At(m/s2) in meter per second square and is Divided by the Radius of Rotation r(m) in meter.
The Formula of Radial Acceleration can be written as,
Ar(m/s2) = At(m/s2) / r(m)
Here,
Ar(m/s2) = Radial Acceleration Ar in meter per second square
At(m/s2) = Tangential Acceleration in meter per second square
r(m) = Radius of Rotation in meter
Radial Acceleration Calculation :
1)Calculate the Radial Acceleration and given for Tangential Acceleration = 260m/s2 , Radius of Rotation = 20m.
Answer
Ar = At / r
Ar = 260 / 20
Ar = 13m/s2.
2)Calculate the Radius of Rotation and given for Tangential Acceleration = 260m/s2 , Radial Acceleration = 13m/s2.
Answer
Ar = At / r
13 = 260 / r
r = 20m.
