How many g force does the space shuttle pull?

The maximum acceleration that was experienced during normal shuttle liftoff was about 3g. During reentry, astronauts experienced approximately 1.5g.


How many g's does the space shuttle experience during take off?

There is a maximum of 3 G's during the shuttle launch.


How many G's does the space shuttle do at launch?

5 Gs


G-force in space shuttle?

The normal amount of G-force an astronaut inside the space shuttle should experience during lift off is around two to three Gs. At launch the gravity that they experience is about 1.7 g's and by the time the solid rocket boosters are separated which is two minutes into the launch the g-force will be over 2 g's. At the separation of the solid rocket booster, the g-force will decrease to just over 1 g. During the last one minute of the ascent, which is for 8.5 minutes, when the main engines ignited the last full minute, we will experience about 3 g's, and when the main engines cut off around 8 minutes, 30 seconds, you go right into zero-g and everything starts to float around.


How many G's when a space shuttle takes off?

When the space shuttle takes off, the astronauts experience 9 times the normal force of gravity on earth. At launch the gravity that they experience is about 1.7 g's and by the time the solid rocket boosters are separated which is two minutes into the launch the g-force will be over 2 g's. At the separation of the solid rocket booster, the g-force will decrease to just over 1 g. During the last one minute of the ascent, which is for 8.5 minutes, when the main engines ignited the last full minute, we will experience about 3 g's, and when the main engines cut off around 8 minutes, 30 seconds, you go right into zero-g and everything starts to float around.

What is the g force of the space shuttle at take off?

The G force on a Space Shuttle at takeoff is 3G. This lasts until the SRBs (Solid Rocket Boosters) quit.DUDE, your so wrong! Try 6 + More G forces... On a realistic average. Just ask NASA.6+G would get the shuttle going way too fast too low, and it would rip apart with air flow pressure. first answer is right, if actually a slight over estimate. one of those Gs is actually 1G of lovely earthly gravity too. it barely accelerates at 2G. (just ask nasa) or anyone who's sustained 6Gs for two minutes.

Does space shuttle make use of gravitational force while landing back to earth?

Like any projectile has a trajectory, the shuttle also has its own trajectory. It orbits the Earth just outside the region where G-force pulls it downwards. TO land the vehicle at the pre-defined landing point, it needs to follow specific trajectory (path of flight). When the re-entry window opens (the time-slot in which the trajectory could be achieved), the shuttle fires its thrusters to enter the atmosphere. Then it is pulled down by the G-force. To reduce the speed, the shuttle uses its belly to catch the wind and get uplift and like any normal aircraft would do, the shuttle comes down to the landing spot and touches down at the runway.

they are launched by there thrust and G Force
