Problem Statement Consider isentropic supersonic flow around the sharp expansion corner illustrated in Figure shown below: Mi M2 Figure 1. Isentropic supersonic flow around a sharp expansion corner. The relationship between Mach number before the corner (M₁) and after the corner (M₁), derived by Zucrow and Hoffman (1976), is given by o = bâ [tan-t ཊཌི་ཊྛཱི -1」 བཻ _ tan-iཊཌི་ཤྲཱི -1 j -[tan-t{wę - 1)2} - tan-i{of - 1)4}] where b b = (x + 1) and y is the specific heat ratio of the gas.

Assume you are observing traffic in a single lane of a highway at a specific location. You measure the average headway and average spacing of passing vehicles as 3.2 seconds and 20 m, respectively. Calculate the flow, average speed, and density of the traffic stream in this lane.
2. The upstream traffic flow on a road with two lanes in the relevant direction is qı= 1800 veh/hr with freeflow speed of vi=90 km/hr. As the result of a crash, one lane is blocked and flow is reduced to q2 = 900 veh/hr. The density in the queue is k2 = 70 veh/km. The value of time is GHC 10/hour/vehicle. Find: (a) The shockwave speed (vw) (b) The number of vehicles that will be in the queue if the traffic situation continues for 1 hour before the lane is cleared. (c) The cost of the crash to society in terms of delay (hint: use travel time in excess of freeflow travel time to determine this) (d) The amount to be paid to a freeway service patrol (tow truck service) if it can clear the crash in 30 minutes (e) The amount to be paid to a freeway service patrol if a variable message sign placed 2 km upstream of the crash site instantly advises travelers about a diversion to a frontage road 1 km upstream of the crash site
A collision occurred between a 1540 kg automobile (A) struck a stopped 890 kg automobile (B). All of the wheels of B were locked, and it slid 6 m after the impact. The coefficient of kinetic friction between B's tires and road was estimated to be u k = 0.8 and the coefficient of restitution of the impact to be e = 0.2. Determine automobile A's velocity in meters per second, just before the impact? Note: You can assume that there was a single impact. VA A B
