A driver is traveling at 45 mi/h and has a perception-reaction time of 3 seconds. A deer is spotted at a distance of 380 ft ahead and the driver is able to come to a stop just before hitting the deer. Assuming practical stopping distance, what is the grade of the road in percent?
Determine the total stopping distance (ft) for a highway with a design speed limit of 75mph. Assume G = -4.96%. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
question -6c,
A traffic stream is moving at a steady state when entering a mountain grade. Upon entering the grade, the speed, density and flow are 72 km/h, 25 veh/km and 1800 veh/hr respectively. On the grade, a truck drops to a speed of 15 km/h causing traffic to bunch up to a density of 85 veh/km. When the truck pulls over, traffic accelerates to the maximum flow until steady state flow conditions resume. Calculate (a) the flow of traffic behind the truck on the mountain grade (b) the jam density and free flow speed for this road (c) the density and speed when traffic resumes a steady state flow (d) the maximum flow
A car is traveling at a speed of 100 ft/s which accelerates 12 ft/s2. The perception reaction time for the driver is 2.40 s. If the maximum grade of the road is -3.7%, compute the following: a. Braking distance in meters b. Lag distance in meters
Plz, solve this problem. Transportation Engineering-2 A four-lane highway (2 lanes in each direction) with 3.65m lanes has a horizontal curve designed for a 380 m centerline radius, and a 110 km/hr design speed. The grade is level. Use a driver perception reaction time of 2.5 sec and a vehicle deceleration rate of 3.4 m/sec2. Determine the closest distance any roadside object may be placed to the centerline of the inside lane of the roadway.(note: Do not round any value. Use calculated values).

Problem 1: A.) Find the angle of banking for a highway curve of 90 meter radius designed to accommodate cars traveling at 160 kph if the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.60 B.) What is the rated speed of the curve?
What distance will a vehicle travel before coming to a complete stop from a speed of 70 mph, (a) When the vehicle is traveling on a level roadway with no grade, (b-1) When the vehicle is traveling uphill on a roadway of constant grade = 0.10, (b-2) If the roadway grade is not constant but starts at 0.10 uphill and decreases to 0 at a continuous rate, would the braking distance be equal to, greater than, or less than that in the case of a constant 0.10 uphill grade (briefly explain why) (c) When the vehicle is traveling downhill on a roadway of constant grade = 0.10. Assume a perception-reaction time of 2.5 seconds, and an a/g value equal to 0.35.
