Angle of Acceleration Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Angle of Acceleration (a) is:

\[ a = \text{ATAN}\left(\frac{\text{Ay}}{\text{Ax}}\right) \]

Where:

Angle of Acceleration (a): The angle formed by the acceleration vector with the horizontal axis, measured in degrees.
Horizontal Component of Acceleration (Ax): The acceleration in the horizontal direction (m/s²).
Vertical Component of Acceleration (Ay): The acceleration in the vertical direction (m/s²).

Let's say the horizontal component of acceleration (Ax) is 3 m/s² and the vertical component of acceleration (Ay) is 4 m/s². Using the formula:

\[ a = \text{ATAN}\left(\frac{4}{3}\right) \approx 53.13 \text{ degrees} \]

So, the angle of acceleration is approximately 53.13 degrees.
