![]() Five seconds later, it accelerates across the finish line in an elapsed time of 9.25 seconds traveling at 152.6 mph and exerting 0.36 g.In just 4.17 seconds and 360 feet from where it started-not even a third of the way to the quarter-mile finish line-the Model S Plaid cracks 100 mph, still shoving the driver back with 0.66 g of force.After that, it's wide-eyed silence until the finish line, at which point the incredulous swearing and uncontrollable laughing begin. It's in those three ticks you hear the most screaming from passengers. So, occupants of the Plaid experience in excess of 1.00 g for nearly three full seconds. ![]() For the first time since the brake pedal was released, the longitudinal g load drops below 1.00 at 68.1 mph.We don't dive into detail like this often, but this might be another first: a car that accelerates from 0-60 mph in a shorter time and distance than it achieves 60-0 mph. Interestingly, on regular asphalt, the car needs 104 feet and 2.38 seconds to stop from 60 mph, averaging 1.16 g in the opposite direction.Yes, the entire sub-2.0-second drama occurs in less than 100 feet. Sixty mph arrives in the aforementioned 1.98 seconds, and the car is still pulling 1.11 g-and is just 98 feet from where it started.Five feet further, the tires really dig in and a peak g force of 1.30 occurs at 28.4 mph, and the force doesn't fall below 1.20 g until 50.4 mph.By the time the car's rear bumper is where its front bumper began, it's already traveling 24.8 mph at 1.24 g. To calculate the gravitational force between two objects use the formula F GMm/R, where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the first object, m is the mass of the second object, and R is the distance between the centers of the two objects. How to Convert Units of Force Conversions are performed by using a conversion factor. Enter the force value and select the units you're converting from and the units you're converting to. The length of the Tesla Model S Plaid is 197.7 inches (about 16.5 feet). Force Conversion Calculator Calculator Use Use this conversion tool to convert units of force. ![]() Fifteen-hundredths (0.15) of a second later, the car travels 1 foot, timing begins, and it's already going 5.9 mph. In other words, the force pushing his head and torso into the seatback in that instant is the same as if he were lying on his back and attempting to perform a sit up from the floor.
