Weight Transfer Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Weight Transfer.
WT = a * h/w * m
Variables:
- WT is the Weight Transfer (N)
- a is the acceleration (m/s^2)
- h is the center of mass height (m)
- w is the wheelbase (m)
- m is the total vehicle mass (kg)
How to Calculate Weight Transfer?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Weight Transfer.
- First, determine the acceleration (m/s^2).
- Next, determine the center of mass height (m).
- Next, determine the wheelbase (m).
- Next, determine the total vehicle mass (kg).
- Next, gather the formula from above = WT = a * h/w * m.
- Finally, calculate the Weight Transfer.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
acceleration (m/s^2) = 20
center of mass height (m) = 100
wheel base (m) = 200
WT = a * h/w * m = ?
