1. A four-lane freeway (two lanes in each direction) is located on rolling terrain and has 12-ft lanes, no lateral obstructions
within 6 ft of the pavement edges, and there are two ramps within three miles upstream of the segment midpoint and three ramps within three miles downstream of the segment midpoint. A weekday directional peak-hour volume of 1800 vehicles (familiar users) is observed, with 700 arriving in the most congested 15-min period. If a LOS no worse than C is desired, determine the maximum number of heavy vehicles that can be present in the peak-hour traffic stream.

Answer:
22.90 × 10⁸ kg
Explanation:
Given:
Diameter, d = 0.02 m
ωₙ = 0.95 rad/sec
Time period, T = 0.35 sec
Now, we know
T=
where, L is the length of the steel cable
g is the acceleration due to gravity
0.35=
or
L = 0.0304 m
Now,
The stiffness, K is given as:
K =
Where, A is the area
E is the elastic modulus of the steel = 2 × 10¹¹ N/m²
or
K =
or
K = 20.66 × 10⁸ N
Also,
Natural frequency, ωₙ =
or
mass, m =
or
mass, m =
mass, m = 22.90 × 10⁸ kg
Answer:
From the derivation in the attachment below it
Is clear that discrete time receives phase response
