Can someone help? I am trying to find a formula to solve the following problem:
What distance would a body have to travel to attain a speed of 25,000 an hour with the acceleration limited to producing a given number of g-forces on the body, say 4g.
So the acceleration would produce a constant g-force of 4 on the body.
The desired speed is 25,000 MPH.
How far would the body have to travel to attain it?
The twist in the calculation is using g-force as an acceleration measurement.
I am trying to solve a problem in my design of a theoretical space transportation system. I need that acceleration length as a vital piece of the puzzle.
You can find my design at http://www.bhughes.com/ "Space Travel"
