Intersection Design

An intersection is a location where two or more roads or railways meet or join. The traffic movement is controlled at the intersection that depends on its design and type. It governs the operation, efficiency, speed, capacity, and safety of the highways, airways, and railways. The movement of the pedestrian causes hazards and delays at the intersection.

Question-- A vehicle is moving on a road of grade +4% at a speed of 20 m/s. Consider the coefficient of rolling friction as 0.46 and acceleration due to gravity as 10 m/s². On applying brakes to reach a speed of 10 m/s, find the required braking distance along the horizontal.
A 2400-lb vehicle (CD = 0.38, Af = 26 ft², and p 0.002378 slugs/ft³) is driven on a surface with coefficient of adhesion equal to 0.8 and a coefficient of rolling friction of 0.014 at all speeds. Assuming minimum theoretical stopping distances, if the vehicle comes to a stop 200 ft after brake application on a level surface and has a braking efficiency of 0.85, what was its initial speed (a) considering aerodynamic resistances, and (b) ignoring aerodynamic resistance?
A 3500-lb vehicle (CD = 0.38, A_f= 26 ft^2, p =0.002378 slugs/ft^3) is driven on a surface with a coefficient of adhesion of 0.5, and the coefficient of rolling friction is approximated as 0.015 for all speeds. Assuming minimum theoretical stopping distances, if the vehicle comes to a stop 260 ft after brake application on a level surface and has a braking efficiency of 0.82, what was its initial speed (a) if aerodynamic resistance is considered and (b) if aerodynamic resistance is ignored?

Each tire on the 1425-kg car can support a maximum friction force parallel to the road surface of 2170 N. This force limit is nearly constant over all possible rectilinear and curvilinear car motions and is attainable only if the car does not skid. Under this maximum braking, determine the total stopping distance s if the brakes are first applied at point A when the car speed is 18 m/s and if the car follows the centerline of the road.
