Calculate Tangential Acceleration





Formula

The formula to calculate Tangential Acceleration (at) is:

\[ at = \alpha \cdot Rc \]

Where:

Definition

Tangential acceleration is defined as the rate of change of tangential velocity of the matter in the circular path.

Angular acceleration refers to the time rate of change of angular velocity.

The Radius of Curvature is the reciprocal of the curvature.

How to calculate Tangential Acceleration

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ at = \alpha \cdot Rc \]

Evaluating:

\[ at = 1.6 \cdot 15 \]

The Tangential Acceleration is 24.
