Nicholas Barker Caldari Black Bands Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.04.09 18:54:00 - [1] anybody know a good gforce calculator or a forumla i can use? i want to know how many G i'm pulling when orbitting something at 14km at 6.5kms (actual speed/distance while in orbit, not the speed/orbit i set it too.) i have a feeling it's going to be something totaly mental. ------------------------------------- Am Orbitin' ur shi... i said orbit... ORBIT... no don't fly off in that direction
Vari Carbide Industries	Posted - 2007.04.09 18:58:00 - [2] Arad = (V^2)/R one G is 9.8 m/s^2
Asimov Andies Gallente Red Blade Industries	Posted - 2007.04.09 19:19:00 - [3] Unless I am mistaken... which I have been known to do, g force is calculated to earths gravity and hence is only accurate when in earths atmosphere. In fact in space, unless orbiting a large mass object that has a gravitational force pulling on you. So in other words, currently, in eve you are pulling 0 g's unless orbiting a station or titan, or maybe a carrier. -=#=- Angry beer bottles make Kaemonn a sad panda NO It's Been Touched

A G-force is a measure of acceleration, not gravity. --23 Member-- Listen to EVE-Trance Radio (back up, new address!)

It has to do with the earth's gravity though, unless my comprehension skills are not trained to lvl 5 yet. Originally by: wikipedia g-force (also gee-force, gee-loading) is a non SI scalar measure of acceleration, where 1 g (pronounced gee) is defined to be an acceleration of the same magnitude as the value of the acceleration due to gravity on Earth at sea level-an acceleration equal to 9.80665 m/s2- approx. 32.174 ft/s2. G-force also refers to the force resulting from an acceleration. -=#=- Angry beer bottles make Kaemonn a sad panda NO It's Been Touched

One does not need to be under the influence of gravity in order to be affected by acceleration, and thus Gee forces. --23 Member-- Listen to EVE-Trance Radio (back up, new address!)
Asimov Andies Gallente Red Blade Industries	Posted - 2007.04.09 19:42:00 - [7] okay, so I found my comprehension skill is only trained to 4, next on my train list comprehension 5 -=#=- Angry beer bottles make Kaemonn a sad panda NO It's Been Touched

Ravric	Posted - 2007.04.09 23:49:00 - [10] There is no "horizontal plane" in the universe. Sound requires a medium to travel, space is not a medium. Laser is invisible in a vacuum. Space is frictionless so there is no top speed of a ship. Would require use of opposing force to stop (rear facing thrusters). Please donÆt try to apply the laws of physics to any space game, movie, book etc.

Newton tells us that every action has equal and opposite reaction and Einstien tells us that nothing is faster than light. So a ship's speed (if it had no mass) could not exceed the amount of thrust it could produce and if that was at the speed of light, it could go no faster.

Your applying newtonian physics to space when they only apply to earth. you are applying a theory to a concept that has yet to be proven. I would say there is no top speed in friction less and gravityless space and there would be no top speed, but as long as your in a solar system there is gravity, no matter how minute. You can not apply theory as fact, especially a theory that is in the proccess of being disproven. And nasa already has shown that earth physics (newtonian physics) soes not truly apply in space. -=#=- Angry beer bottles make Kaemonn a sad panda NO It's Been Touched
Shalia Ripper Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.04.10 01:59:00 - [13] Originally by: Asimov Andies Your applying newtonian physics to space when they only apply to earth. Someone inform NASA. Really, you are more clueless than I am. You = wrong.
Dark Shikari Caldari Imperium Technologies Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2007.04.10 02:05:00 - [14] Originally by: Asimov Andies Your applying newtonian physics to space when they only apply to earth.. There is no magical transition that one crosses between earth and "space" where physical laws change. All of the universe can be roughly approximated by Newton's laws, which are extremely accurate in most cases. NASA uses Newton's laws to calculate their trajectories, not Einstein's field equations, because they are too complex for too little gain in accuracy. The difference is only considerable when in extreme systems, such as high-mass objects like neutron stars or on very large scales. --23 Member-- Listen to EVE-Trance Radio (back up, new address!)

Someone inform NASA. Really, you are more clueless than I am. You = wrong. Indeed. Arm-chair astrophysicists ftw. Quoth the Wiki: Originally by: Wikipedia Classical mechanics is used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects, from projectiles to parts of machinery, as well as astronomical objects, such as spacecraft, planets, stars, and galaxies. It produces very accurate results within these domains, and is one of the oldest and largest subjects in science and technology. --------
