Formula Used
Resistance Overcome Tractive Effort = Specific Resistance Train*Weight of Train
For = Rsp*W
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Resistance Overcome Tractive Effort - (Measured in Newton) - Resistance Overcome Tractive Effort can either refer to the total traction a vehicle exerts on a surface or the amount of the total traction that is parallel to the direction of motion.
Specific Resistance Train - Specific Resistance Train is defined in terms of force required to encounter resistance arising due to vehicle, track, grade, curve, acceleration, wind at different time and place etc.
Weight of Train - (Measured in Kilogram) - Weight of Train is total weight of the train in tonns.
