A car is traveling up a 3% grade, with the speed of 85mph, on a road that has good, wet pavement. A deer jumps out onto the road and the driver applies the brakes 290-ft from it. The driver hits the deer at a speed of 20mph.If the driver did not have antilock brakes, and the wheels were locked the entire distance, would a deer-impact speed of 20mph be possible?

By assuming linear speed-density relationship, the jam density on a highway facility is observed to be about 150 veh/km, and the mean speed on a lane equals 50 kmph near zero density.a. Write down the speed-density and flow-density equations.b. Draw v-k, v-q and q-k diagrams indicating critical values.c. Compute the average clearance, if the avg. length of vehicle is assumed 6 m.d.

Two cars are traveling on level terrain at 72 mi/h on a road with a coefficient of adhesion of 0.85. The driver of car 1 has a 2.4-s perception/reaction time and the driver of car 2 has a 2.2-s perception/reaction time. Both cars are traveling side by side and the drivers are able to stop their respective cars in the same distance after first seeing a roadway obstacle (perception and reaction plus vehicle stopping distance). If the braking efficiency of car 2 is 0.75, determine the braking efficiency of car 1 (in % with 2 decimals). (Assume minimum theoretical stopping distance and ignore aerodynamic resistance.)
