Two parallel railway lines are to be connected by a reverse curve, each section havingthe same radius. If the lines are 10 m apart and the maximum distance between tangentpoints measured parallel to the straights is 40 m, find the maximum allowable radius. If,however, both the radii are different, calculate the radius of the second branch if that ofthe 1st branch is 50 m. Also, calculate the length of the curves of both branches.
