Problem 1. In deriving braking distance, we assume a constant acceleration/deceleration rate, a. In fact, AASHTO assumes constant acceleration a(t) = c (constant) in most of its design procedures. Although this is not entirely true, distances required for acceleration or deceleration can be realistic if appropriate values are chosen for the constant acceleration process. Linear acceleration a(t) = c₁ ⋅ t (t is time elapse and c₁ is jerk rate or rate of change) is a better approximation to the acceleration process. a) What is the practical stopping distance for a vehicle with initial speed 70 mph, if acceleration is described by a linear function of time using a(t) = -1.8t (t is time elapse in seconds). b) Use a constant acceleration rate to achieve the same stopping distance. What is this constant acceleration rate?
When crossing an intersection, a motorcyclist encounters the slight bump or crown caused by the intersecting road. If the crest of the bump has a radius of curvature, ? = 25 meters, determine the maximum constant speed at which he can travel without leaving the surface of the road. Neglect the size of the motorcycle and rider in the calculation. The rider and his motorcycle have a total weight 3.5 kN.
