Title Description Downloads Average rating
Orbit CE This program is designed to help students and enthusiasts understand orbital mechanics and the influence of mass and gravity on orbiting objects. Formulas are provided for all calculations and constants programmed for the Earth, Moon, Mars, Jupiter and Kerbin. You can also input… 1200
Delta-V CE This small program uses the rocket equation to calculate the delta-V of a vehicle using exhaust velocity as an input variable. It is excellent for students and enthusiasts to understand better how a change in mass over time impacts the change in velocity of a rocket. The equatio… 456
Hull Speed CE This simple program calculates the theoretical hull speed of a sailing vessel measured in feet or meters. You decide your unit of measurement and input the LWL, and the calculator will give you the theoretical hull speed in knots. This is a great app to have if you are lookin… 514
Stopping Distance CE This handy program calculates the safe stopping distance (which aids in determining a safe following distance) of a vehicle travelling at any km/h speed. You input the reaction time in seconds, the vehicle's speed, the roadway's grade (+/-), and the friction coefficient. From th… 461
BusPlan CE BUSPLAN-CE is a TI-84 Plus CE program designed to help transit planners, schedulers, or trainees determine the number of buses required on a route to maintain a given headway. The program uses the total round trip time (T), a layover time expressed as a percentage (L), and the d… 221
CPA CE Computes the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) between two vessels at sea. Uses a relative motion model based on vector trigonometry, assuming constant speeds and courses for both vessels. 335
Overhang CE Calculates how far a vehicle’s overhang sweeps outward — or “kicks out” — laterally when the vehicle turns at a given angle. User inputs vehicle's rear overhang length, distance cleared/from curb, and angle of the turn. 149
BusPlan 83 A program to calculate the required number of buses on a route given the trip time, layover percentage and planned headway. 75
CPA 83 A program to calculate the closest-point-of-approach between two vessels at sea. Assumes constant course and speed for both vessels. 79
GForce 83 A program to calculate deceleration, distance and time given speed and desired g-force from the user. 45
GDist 83 A program to calculate deceleration, g-force and time given speed and braking distance from the user. 70
GTime 83 A program to calculate deceleration, g-force and distance given speed and braking time from the user. 82
Hours 83 A program to calculate hours.minutes length of a shift and can display wage earned. User can edit the program and input their hourly wage on the first line. All times are inputed and displayed in H.mms. 53
Kickout 83 Calculates the kickout of a vehicle with an overhang given the overhang, distance from curb/danger and turn in degrees. 75
Driving 83 A progam to calculate momentum and kinetic energy based on speed and vehicle weight. Will also convert km/h speed to m/s for interest. 65
Position 83 A program to calculate cartesian position on a plane given angle and distance. Shows little arrows on the side for relative position. 81
Stopping Distance 83 A program to calculate safe stopping distance given velocity, reaction time, friction (0.7 standard dry, 0.35 wet) and road grade. Displays distance travelled during reaction, in brake application and total travelled. 78
Orbit 83 A program to calculate a perfectly circular orbit of a satellite given height (km) or velocity (m/s) from the user for EARTH, MOON, MARS and JUPITER with all constants provided by NASA Factsheets. Program will provide orbital height (km), velocity (m/s), period (min) and circumf… 32
