A transportation museum has a building on both sides of Interstate 64/Highway 40. A walkway across the highway connects the two parts of the museum. At one of the exhibits, radar devices are placed in the walkways so that visitors can clock the speeds of motorists on the highway below. Following are the recorded speeds of motorists on a Tuesday afternoon (4:00 - 4:10).

Interstate Highway (4 lanes both direction) with AADT of 6000 (90% car, 10% truck) in one direction takes a week for water to be drained from pavement and pavement will be exposed to moisture levels approaching saturation for 30% of the time.

TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING: A multilane highway has four lanes (2 in each direction) and a measured FFS of 55 mph. One upgrade is 5% and 0.62 miles long. Currently trucks are not permitted on the road, but there are 2% busses in the directional volume of 1900 vehicles (PHF is 0.80). Local authorities are considering allowing trucks into the traffic stream. If this is done, they estimate 150 trucks will use this highway during peak hour. Before trucks, the driver population...

A highway has a flat section with a tight curve of radius 40 m. The curve is level with respect to the ground. If the coefficient of static friction between tires and pavement surface is 0.45, what is the maximum speed v at which a car of inertia m can negotiate the curve safely —that is without the tires slipping?

Of 121 coins, one has a symbol on both sides, the others have a number on one side and a symbol on the other. Otherwise the coins cannot be distinguish between them. After good mixing in a bag, one of the coins is pulled out and threw it three times in a row. After each throw there is a symbol on top. a)Then what is the probability that the coin with the two symbols was pulled? b)How many times had...

The Covid crisis has disrupted many markets both on the supply and demand sides. Identify markets that have been negatively impacted on the supply side. What happened? What caused the disruption? Have there been surpluses or shortages in these markets? Have any markets thrived? If so, which markets have done well and why? Note: In order to have a market, there must be both buyers and sellers. Demand reflects the behavior of buyers. Supply represents the behavior of producers and...
