When an object accelerates at 9.8 m/s2 (or 32 ft/s2), we say it accelerates with 1 g. This is true whether the object is falling under gravity, or due to something else. Using the constant-acceleration approximation, determine how many g's are involved at Cedar Point's Top Thrill Dragster. According to the park, it goes 0 to 170 mph in 3.8 s on the horizontal track, before turning up vertically. Round the final answer to three decimal places.
