Formula for acceleration. Rendered using Wikipedia's TeX plugin.
- Vt
- Velocity after time t in m/s
- Vmax
- Ship's maximum velocity in m/s
- I
- Ship's inertia modifier in s/kg
- M
- Ship's mass in kg
- e
- Base of natural logarithms
TeX source:
V_t = V_{\rm max} \times (1 - e^{\frac{-t \times 10^6}{I \times M}})
