Sight Distance A driver is traveling at 55 mi/h on a wet road. An object is spotted on the road 450 ft ahead and the driver is able to come to a stop just before hitting the object. Assuming standard perception/reaction time, determine the grade of the road.
Two set of students are collecting traffic data at the two sections A and B 300 meters apart long a highway . Observation at A shows that 5 vehicles pass that section at intervals of 9 sec , 10 sec, 11 sec, 13 sec, and 15 sec respectively. If the speed of the vehicles were 84, 76, 68, 60 and 52 kph, compute the time mean spee (kph), space mean speed (kph), density of the highway
plz, solve this problem, it is not graded question. Transportation Engineering-1 During a 70 sec period, a detector is occupied by vehicles for the following times: 0.31, 0.39, 0.41, 0.35, and 0.53 sec. Estimate the values of flow (q), density (k) and speed (v). Assume that the loop detector is 10 ft and that that the average length of the vehicle is 20 ft.
Two vehicles, one operated by a human and the other computer controlled, are traveling on a level highway. If the autonomous vehicle is traveling at 70 mi/h, and it receives information at a frequency of 10Hz to respond, what is the maximum speed the human-controlled vehicle can travel and have a practical stopping distance that does not exceed that of the autonomous vehicle? (Assume that grade is zero, driver’s reaction time is 1.5s and autonomous vehicle can decelerate at 15.5ft/s2 )?
