    Calculating motor force based on acceleration required

    Thanks for your help. Weight: 100 kg Required acceleration: +0.8 m/s per sec Wheel radius: 0.04 m Wheel width 0.04 m Tire friction coefficient: 0.3 Uphill slope: 5% Gravity acceleration constant: 9.82 Force needed for acceleration: 100*0.8 = 80 N Force needed to conquer tire friction: 100*0.03...
