Car A is moving with constant speed v on the straight and level highway. The police officer in the stationary car Pattempts to measure the speed v with radar. If the radar measures "line-of sight" velocity, what velocity v' will the officer observe? Evaluate your general expression for the values v = 78 mi/hr, L= 480 ft, and D = 17 ft, and draw any appropriate conclusions.

The reaction time of the average automobile driver is about 0.7sec. The reaction time is the interval between the perception of a signal to stop and the application of the brakes. If an automobile can decelerate at 4.5 m/sec?, compute the total distance covered in coming to stop after a signal is observed from an initial velocity of 48kph.
18 The density of traffic in a certain observation point on a highway was recorded to be 30 veh/km. If the space mean speed of the vehicle is 50 kph, how many vehicles will be passing every 20 minutes? A. 255 B. 750 C. 50 D. 500 E. None of the above
Car A is traveling at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. The driver of car A is traveling at VA = 128 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 5.8 seconds, the car uniformly decelerates to the speed limit of 100 km/h, and after that the speed limit is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 5.9 m/s² until a speed of 168 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distances required for the police officer to overtake car A. Answer: s= VA P m
Car A is traveling at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. The driver of car A sees and reacts very unwisely to the police car P. Car A is traveling at VÅ = 129 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 4.9 seconds, the car uniformly accelerates to 149 km/h, after which that speed is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 4.4 m/s² until a speed of 177 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distances required for the police officer to overtake car A. A Answer: s= VA P m
Calculate the minimum required sight distance for a highway with design speed of 90 kmph when there is one lane two way traffic. Assume reaction time as 2.0 sec and coefficient of friction as 0.3.
While a car is moving with a speed 108 k on a straight road the driver sees a truck which enters the road 75m ahead. The driver applies full brake 0.5s after s/he observes the truck, however the car hits the truck with a speed of 50 k. Then what would be the maximum initial speed of car in when the driver observes the truck in order that the car does not hit the truck with all other conditions are the same?
Car A is traveling at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. The driver of car A is traveling at vÃ = 122 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 4.1 seconds, the car uniformly decelerates to the speed limit of 100 km/h, and after that the speed limit is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 4.0 m/s² until a speed of 164 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distance s required for the police officer to overtake car A. Answer: s= i VA 248.52 P m
