Number of Rails per km Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Number of Rails per Km = (1000/Length of Single Rail)*2
N = (1000/L)*2
This formula uses 2 Variables
Variables Used
Number of Rails per Km - Number of Rails per Km is the total number of rails in one kilometer or 1000m.
Length of Single Rail - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Single Rail Indian Railways has standardized a rail length of 13 m (previously 12.8 m) for broad gauge and 12 m (previously 11.8 m) for MG and NG tracks.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Length of Single Rail: 13 Meter --> 13 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
N = (1000/L)*2 --> (1000/13)*2
Evaluating ... ...
N = 153.846153846154
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
153.846153846154 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
153.846153846154 153.8462 <-- Number of Rails per Km
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Number of rails per km at given weight of rails per km
Go Number of Rails per Km = (1000*Weight of Rails per Km)/(Length of Single Rail*Weight of Rail per Meter)
Length of Single Rail at given Weight of Rails per km
Go Length of Single Rail = (1000*Weight of Rails per Km)/(Number of Rails per Km*Weight of Rail per Meter)
Weight of Rail per m at given Weight of Rails per km
Go Weight of Rail per Meter = (1000*Weight of Rails per Km)/(Number of Rails per Km*Length of Single Rail)
Weight of Rails per km
Go Weight of Rails per Km = Number of Rails per Km*Length of Single Rail*Weight of Rail per Meter/1000
Number of Rails per km at given Number of Sleepers per km
Go Number of Rails per Km = 2*(Number of Sleepers per Km)/(Length of Single Rail+Density Factor)
Length of Single Rail at given Number of Sleepers per km
Go Length of Single Rail = (2*Number of Sleepers per Km/Number of Rails per Km)-(Density Factor)
Density Factor at given Number of Sleepers per km
Go Density Factor = (2*Number of Sleepers per Km/Number of Rails per Km)-(Length of Single Rail)
Number of Sleepers per km
Go Number of Sleepers per Km = (Length of Single Rail+Density Factor)*(Number of Rails per Km)/2
Length of Single Rail using Sleeper Density
Go Length of Single Rail = Sleeper Density-Density Factor
Density Factor using Sleeper Density
Go Density Factor = Sleeper Density-Length of Single Rail
Sleeper Density
Go Sleeper Density = Length of Single Rail+Density Factor
