long acceleration in g calculation
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2008 3:15 pm
I tried to verify the long acceleration data (g) by differentiating the speed in m/s versus time giving me the acceleration in m/s^2 and dividing that result by 9.81 to get the long acceleration in g.
then I compared the derived g with the long acceleration in g provided as a standard variable and noticed that they do fairly match but with some exemptions.
any ideas why? the standard vector g also seems to be much smoother and sometimes higher.
