A gasoline service station sees on average 27 arrivals of vehicles every one hour in the morning. The average service time is 100 seconds. If one particular bank employee leaves his house at 8:15AM and it is just 35 minute drive to a small single gas station and then a 45 minute drive to his office, what time in AM he is expected to arrive at the bank?

Concept explainers

Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.

Question

A gasoline service station sees on average 27 arrivals of vehicles every one hour in the morning. The

Question: A section of highway is known to have a free-flow speed of 55 mph and a capacity of 3300 veh/hr. In a given hour, 2100 vehicles were counted at a specified point along this highway section under uncongested conditions. If the linear speed- density relationship applies, what would you estimate the space-mean speed of these 2100 vehicles to be? Show all the calculation steps.

F] Vehicles travel at constant speeds on a one-lane one-way street between sections X and Y. An observer located at point X observes the four vehicles passing point X during a period of 10 seconds. The speeds of the vehicles are measured as 45, 45, 40, and 30mph, respectively. Calculate the average flow, density, time mean speed, and space mean speed.
Through the Walla Walla Road to the entrance of the E-1 parking lot at the University of Washington, vehicles begin to arrive from 7:40 A.M. at a uniform deterministic rate of 480 vph until 8:20 A.M. and from then on at 120 vph. It takes 10 seconds for a vehicle to go through the paying process at the gate. If the parking lot is open at 8:00 A.M., determine (a) when the queue will dissipate, (b) the total delay, (c) the average delay, (d) the maximum queue length (in vehicles), and (e) the longest vehicle delay under FIFO.
