URGENT Please answer this problem in 15 minutes, need a correct answer with complete solution. Subject is Highway Engineering. Box the final answer and do not shortcut your solution. I will give an upvote if it satisfies. Thank you! A vehicle is moving on a level road at an initial speed of 40 km/h and a final speed of 0 km/h. Considering that the road is wet, what will be its stopping distance having a perception-reaction time of 3.2 seconds?

TRANSPORTATION CLASS ASSIGNMENT 1. The traffic flow on a highway is ql=2000 veh/hr with speed of vl=80 km/hr. As the result of an accident, the road is blocked. The density in the queue is k2=275 veh/km. (Jam density, vehicle length = 3.63 meters). Find: (a) The speed of the vehicles at jam density (b) The rate at which the queue grows (in units of vehicles per hour )

1) The number of accidents has been recorded at an intersection in the last three years as follows: 18, 21, and 19. The accidents were mostly due to left-turning vehicles, speeding, and the absence of left-turn protection. The average ADT for the last 3 years is 8500. The following shows the crash reduction factor for various countermeasures: Countermeasure Reduction Factor Retime signals Provide left-turn signal phase Reduce speed limit on approaches Provide turning guide lines 0.30 0.30 0.35 0.05 a) Determine the appropriate countermeasures b) Determine the expected reduction in crashes if the countermeasures are implemented. The ADT is expected to increase 2%

A test of a driver’s perception/reaction time is being conducted on a special testing track with level, wet pavement and a driving speed of 50 mi/h. When the driver is sober, a stop can be made just in time to avoid hitting an object that is first visible 385 ft ahead. After a few drinks under exactly the same conditions, the driver fails to stop in time and strikes the object at a speed of 30 mi/h. Determine the driver’s perception/reaction time before and after drinking. [Assume Practical Stopping Distance].
