Test Compute the following:
With the passing distance sighted on a certain highway to be
i.)
458.0 mts. the following data also noted: Speed of the
overtaken vehicle = 47 Kph, Time of initial maneuver = 2.5 sec
Average acceleration 2.25 m/sec', Time of passing vehicle
occupies the left lane = 10.8 sec Distance between the passing
vehicle at the end of its maneuver and the opposing vehicle =
48 mts. Sketch Phases & Solve (Use Three (3) decimal place in
the solution}
a. Compute the velocity of the speeding vehicle (Kph)?
b. if velocity of speeding vehicle reduced by 1 kph., what
is the PSD required (mts)?
