Banked Turn

Calculate the banked angle for a vehicle moving in a circular path to compensate for centrifugal forces. This tool computes the required banking angle in both radians and degrees given the vehicle's velocity, curve radius, and gravitational acceleration.

Calculator

Inputs

Velocity (km/h)

Curve Radius (m)

Gravity Acceleration (m/s²)

Results

Velocity-- m/s

Centripetal Acceleration-- m/s²

Banked Angle-- rad

Banked Angle-- °
