A section of highway has a free-flow speed of 55 mph and a capacity of 3300 veh/hr. In a given hour, 2100 vehicles were counted

at a specified point along this highway section. If the linear speed density relationship applies, what would you estimate the space-mean speed of the vehicles to be?

Answer:

Space mean speed = 44 mi/h

Explanation:

Using Greenshield's linear model

q = Uf ( D - D^{2}/Dj )

qcap = capacity flow that gives Dcap

Dcap = Dj/2

qcap = Uf. Dj/4

Where

U = space mean speed

Uf =  free flow speed

D = density

Dj = jam density

now,

Dj = 4 × 3300/55

    = 240v/h

q = Dj ( U - U^{2}/Uf)

2100 = 240 ( U - U^{2}/55)

Solve for U

U = 44m/h

If gain of the critically damped system is increased, the system will behave as a) Under damped b) Over damped c) Critically dam
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

a) Under damped

Explanation:

Given that system is critically damped .And we have to find out the condition when gain is increased.

As we know that damping ratio given as follows

\zeta =\dfrac{C}{C_c}

Where C is the damping coefficient and Cc is the critical damping coefficient.

C_c=2\sqrt{mK}

So from above we can say that

\zeta =\dfrac{C}{2\sqrt{mK}}

\zeta \alpha \dfrac{1}{\sqrt K}

From above relationship we can say when gain (K) is increases then system will become under damped system.
