Change in velocity calculator

In flight mechanics, the “change in velocity” refers to the difference between an aircraft’s initial velocity and its final velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the speed and the direction of an object’s motion. The change in velocity takes into account both the magnitude and direction of the velocity change.

• $\Delta v$ represents the change in velocity. This could refer to changes in speed, magnitude of velocity, or any component of velocity (such as vertical or horizontal velocity).
• $\rho$ is likely a coefficient that quantifies the rate of change. It could be related to a growth factor, decay factor, or some other factor affecting the change in velocity.
• $e$ is the base of the natural logarithm, approximately equal to 2.71828.
• $\lambda$ represents an eigenvalue or a decay/growth rate, which determines how fast the change occurs over time.
• $t$ represents time
