And the only truly accurate way. The figure would vary from car to car - there is no perfect equation for it.
Rocket science is indeed rocket science but at least they have one accelerating force that is known to be constant: gravity. During liftoff, air resistance and uneven acceleration from thrust must be contended with but I'm guessing that the thrust from rockets is more constant. No gear changes.
