H.W: A simple four-leg intersection needs a fixed-time signal. The critical flows in he N-S and E-W directions are 600 and 400 veh/hr. Saturation flow is 1800 veh/hr and the lost time per phase is observed to be 5.2 seconds. Determine the cycle length and distribution of green (assume yellow interval 4sec).

Problem 1: Textbook Problem 7.1 W An intersection approach has one left-turn lane. The signal cycle length is C = 90 seconds, which is divided into r= 74 seconds of effective red, followed by g = 16 seconds of effective green. At t = 0 (start of the effective red), there is a queue of 3 vehicles. Left turn vehicles arrive at a constant rate of λ = 200 . During the 16 second effective green time, left-turn vehicles cross the stop line at one vehicle every 2 seconds. veh a. Sketch the graph of cumulative arrivals and departures from t = 0-90 seconds. Shade the area that represents the total delay. b. At t = 90 seconds, how many vehicles arrived? How many vehicles departed?

The velocities of commuter trains A and B are as shown. Knowing that the speed of each train is constant and that B reaches the crossing 3 min after A passed through the same crossing, determine the distance between the fronts of the engines 10 min after A passed through the crossing (Answer in whole number of a meter).
