Maximum Safe Velocity On The Car

#1. I believe that decreasing the diameter of the front wheels will significantly impact on the distance that the mousetrap car will travel this

stub axle whose main function is to be a hostage of the wheel may be deformed due to high fatigue stress induced due to the repetitive compressive load on upper edge and tensile on lower edge as many times as the wheel experiences high impact load in upward direction. And the result is the difficulty while cornering.

ground, so it accelerates. If the track tilts up, gravity applies a downward force on the back of the

The driver lost control over the car and it over turned the vehicle when he couldn’t balance the vehicle on sighting tyre debris on the

An extreme number of research and data have pointed out that teens are not equipped with safe driving skills. These numbers have lead to countless arguments between teens and adults. All though teens are more interested in their phone then a car they still have a desire to get onto the road. The car offers an immense amount of self conscious and maturity to a teen. This is one of the main points as to why teens are so eager to get out on the road as soon as possible. If and when they do get on the road they look right past the consequences that may occur with driving at such a young age. Without a doubt teenage drivers are very inexperienced when it comes to their first trips on the road because the only prior training they can get is practice

b. This could be similar to driving a race car as fast as possible around an oval type track.

With roads in such substandard conditions and with no signs of repairs coming in the near future, Baton Rouge drivers have to be careful on the roads. One cannot always take the freeway to get to places and there might be heavy traffic if everyone tries to use it. Along with the fact that sometime a route cannot be planned around a terrible road as it is the only way to the destination. With these factors in mind, one must be prepared to drive for the safety of oneself and others. Whenever coming to a pothole or any other danger that may come with an inadequate road, it is important to drive slowly and cautiously. This is most important due to the fact that driving carefully on even the safest of roads in order to avoid a vehicular

More than 20 km per hour but not more than 30km per hour over the speed limit:

When the mousetrap car moves down the track, the speed of the mousetrap car decreases, therefore my hypothesis was supported. At 1 second, the mousetrap car was traveling at a speed of 3.2 m/s. At 2 seconds, the mousetrap car was traveling at a speed of 2.35 m/s. At 3 seconds, the mousetrap car was traveling at a speed of 1.53 m/s. At 4 seconds, the mousetrap car was moving at a speed of 1.2 m/s. At 5 seconds, the mousetrap car was traveling at a speed of .98m/s. “A car will eventually come to a stop if just allowed to roll as the friction between the road surface and the wheels causes friction that causes the vehicle to stop,”(Examples of Rolling Friction). The evidence supports the claim because the wheels of the mousetrap car are moving

I used a take off angle range from 15-25 degrees. Using the listed information indicated a speed for Driver 1 ranging from 45.27 to 54.94 miles per hour at the area of impact.

If the angle of the inclination increases, making the slope steeper, then the acceleration of the car descending the slope will also increase. This is because the amount of gravity experienced by the car is dependent on the angle of the slope, the steeper the slope the more gravity will be experienced. Therefore, pulling the car down the slope at a greater velocity over the same distance thus creating a greater acceleration for the car.

Since the track consisted of two semicircles which together made up a full circle, I was able to use the radii in the circumference formula. Said formula happens to be C=2r as mentioned before. In the “r” location of the formula, I plugged in the radii which were attained in the steps prior. This was necessary in order to locate the starting positions of the runners and therefore to make the track design fair because by knowing the circumferences of the two semicircles, I am able to see the total distance which a runner in any lane will travel in one lap around the track. This can then be used to determine the offset value of each runner and therefore the starting position in both meters and

How does the incline of the ramp effect the time it takes for a car to go down a ramp?

There are four main features of the tire. One of them is the contact patch or the footprint (Figure 2). That’s the point at which the tread meets the road (Figure 3). Depending on the tire’s design, it’s pressure and the car’s weight, it varies in width and length (in terms of the area of the contact with the road) (Refer to Figure 4). This contact patch allows power to be applied to the road in acceleration and braking. These contact patches are flexible, applying a resisting force against the road in the opposite direction of the car’s motion during acceleration and breaking. In terms of the lateral motion of the contact patch, this motion allows the tires to nicely grip the road during cornering. The second feature which characterizes a tire is its profile. The profile of the tire is a tire’s height (of the “rim” of the tire) in relation to its width. Low profile tire’s trendy with today’s cars. What warrants for the differences in profiles in the frame within the tire are layers called belts (Figure 5). These belts, made of either steel or polyester, and they affect more than just the look of the tire, but also the functions in relation to two types of loads. The first load is the radial load. This is a load applied by the car vertically down the tread of the tire (Figure 6). The stiffer the belts, the rougher the drive since there is more drumming taking place. In terms of lateral loads (Figure 6), applied by the car, usually while

A rightward moving rider gradually becomes an upward moving rider, then a leftward moving rider, then a downward moving rider, before finally becoming a rightward-moving rider once again. There is a continuing change in the direction of the rider as he/she will moves through the clothoid loop. A change in direction is one thing of an accelerating object. The rider also changes speed. As the rider begins to climb upward the loop, he/she begins to slow down. What we talked about suggests that an increase in height results in a decrease in kinetic energy and speed and a decrease in height results in an increase in kinetic energy and speed. So the rider experiences the greatest speeds at the bottom of the loop. The change in speed as the rider moves through the loop is the second part of acceleration which the riders experiences. A rider who moves through a circular loop with a constant speed, the acceleration is centripetal and towards the center of the circle. In this case of a rider moving through a noncircular loop at non-constant speed, the acceleration of the rider has two components. There is a component which is directed towards the center of the circle (ac) and relates itself to the direction change and the other component is directed tangent (at) to the track and relates itself to the car's change in speed. This tangential component would be
