Aircraft Centripetal Acceleration
This simulation demonstrates an aircraft executing a horizontal loop and compares its centripetal acceleration with gravitational acceleration (g = 9.8 m/s²).
Value: 1.0 km
Value: 900 km/h
Calculations
Centripetal acceleration: 62.5 m/s²
Ratio to gravity (ac/g): 6.38
Formula: ac = v²/r
