Two cars turn as 1R1L; 3. Three cars turn as RR; 4. At least one car goes through. 5. All most all cars move left.

Problem: Car B is traveling a distance d ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B suddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to decelerate at 12 ft/s^2. It takes the driver of car A 0.75 s to react (this is the normal reaction time for drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at 20 ft/s^2. (Figure 1_ Question: Determine the minimum distance d between the cars so as to avoid a collision. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

A researcher was positioned at the side of a 2-lane rural highway. He recorded the volume of northbound traffic, aggregated into 15 minute intervals. The recorded volumes were 243, 276, 318 and 490 vehicles for the first, second, third, and fourth 15-minute intervals, respectively. Calculate the peak flow rate (v/h). Provide your answer to the nearest integer.
The primary elements of traffic flow are flow, density, and speed. Discuss with illustration the relationships between the three elements of a traffic flow.
The traffic volume for a section of a highway can be estimated using the following equation: q = 15.1k[ln (195) - In(k)] Where q is the traffic flow measured in veh/hr and k is the traffic density measured in veh/mi. Based on the provided information, estimate the following (Show all your calculation steps): Maximum flow a. b. Jam density C. Maximum density

Considering linear relationship between density and speed; you are required to estimate the corresponding flow and speed values to densities of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 vehicle/km if the free flow speed is 90 km/hr and at critical situation, it is founded that there are 110 vehicles on a section of road with length 2.0 km. using the estimated values, draw a sketch showing the speed flow - density relationships?
