Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Determine the practical stopping distance (m) for a road with speed limit of 49kph and grade of 0%The average speed of cars passing a busy intersection between 4:30 P.M. and 6:30 P.M. on a Friday is 32.3 mi/h.A) Continuous B) DiscreteThe rate flow at a point in the highway is 1200 vehicles/hour. Find the space mean speed in mph if the density of traffic is 25 vehicles per mile
- In a 500 m section of highway, there are 10 vehicles observed. The time headway is 4 sec. Determine the space mean speed of the vehicles in kph.The distance traveled by the vehicle in the opposite direction is 100 m on two lane two lane roadway. If the acceleration of overtaking vehicle is 3 km/h/sec and time of initial manoeuver is 4 sec. thus the safe overtaking vehicle speed rounded to integer number is ..........km/hDetermine the minimum stopping sight distance on a -3.5% grade for a design speed of 110 kph. Coefficient of friction between tires and pavement is 0.28. Driver’s reaction time (including perception time) is 2.5 sec.
- A driver driving at 69 kph at a straight flat portion of the highway suddenly encounters an obstruction. He applies his brakes. If the coefficient of friction of the roadway to the tires is equal to 0.5, calculate the maximum safe distance (rounded to the nearest meters) the driver can apply his brakes to avoid collision.Tests reveal that a normal driver takes about 0.75 ss before he or she can react to a situation to avoid a collision. It takes about 3 ss for a driver having 0.1%% alcohol in his system to do the same. If such drivers are traveling on a straight road at 30 mphmph (44 ft/sft/s) and their cars can decelerate at 21 ft/s2ft/s2, determine the shortest stopping distance dd for normal driver from the moment he or she see the pedestrians.Compute the headlight sight distance in meters for a freeway with a design speed of 75 kph. Assume time of perception to be 5 sec. and skid resistance to be 0.60. Use 90% brake efficiency.
- Calculate the minimum passing sight distance required for a two-lane rural highway that has a posted limit of 72 kph. The local traffic engineer conducted a speed study of the subject road and found the following: Average speed of passing vehicle= 76 kph Average acceleration of passing vehicle= 2.3 kph/sec Average speed of impeder vehicles= 64 kph Show complete solution. Need ASAP. Thank you.The traffic intensity of a certain freeway is 0.833. The arrival rate of vehicles at a certain intersection (stop sign) is 200 vehicles per hour. Compute the service rate in vehicles/hr. *A motorcycle patrolman starts from rest at A 2 sec. after a car speeding at the constant rate of 120 kph passes point A. If the patrolman accelerates at the rate of 6 m/s2 until he reaches his maximum permissible speed of 150 kph, which he maintains. a. Find the time for the patrolman to reach a maximum permissible speed of 150 kph. b. How long did it take the patrolman to overtake the car from the time he starts from A.? c. Calculate the distance S from point A to the point at which he overtakes the car.
