What would be the difference in stopping sight distance for two vehicles, each travelling at 65 mph, (same tire conditions and road conditions) if one is going up a 6% grade and the other going down a 6% grade?

Expert Solution

Stopping sight distance is the minimum distance visible to a driver ahead or the 'sight distance' available on a highway at any spot should be of sufficient length to safely stop a vehicle traveling at design speed, without collision with any other obstruction.

Now the numerical part,

Choose the correct answer: 1- The stopping sight distance depends upon: a) design speed, driver perception & reaction time, vehicle acceleration rate and road slope b) design speed, vehicle length, vehicle acceleration rate and road width c) vehicle length, vehicle width, vehicle speed and road slope d) wind speed, road slope, road curvature and side friction factor none of the above 2- The superelevation rate of a highway has a design speed of 100kph, radius of 393.7m and side friction...

Two 1.0 metric ton cars crash into each other. Both collide head-on, and each was travelling 27 mi/hr when the collision occurred. The wreckage is at rest after the collision. How much thermal energy was gained by the cars and road in the collision? (in case you are worried, these were driverless vehicles with no passengers inside! Recall that a 100 W lightbulb uses up 100 Joules of energy in 1 second. If there was a way that the thermal...

Two travelling sinosoidal electromagnetic waves, each with an intensity 5.0 W/m2 , interfere to form a standing wave. The resulting electric field E⃗ (z,t) has nodes (i.e., is zero at all times) at z=…,−2a,−a,0,a,2a,… with a = 7.0 m , and satisifes E⃗ (z,0)=0. Furthermore, the magnetic field B⃗ (z,t) is observed to point along ±i^ everywhere. You may take c = 3.0×108 m/s and 8.9×10−12 F/m . Part A What is the wavelength λ of the two constituent travelling...

2. Two charges, each having charge of +Q are separated by distance d. What are electric field and potential created by these two charges exactly at midpoint between them? a. Both potential and electric field are 0. b. Potential is 0, but electric field is not. c. Electric field is zero, but potential is not. d. Both potential and electric field are zero. e. We should know more about charges and distance.
