A truss bridge (refer Figure 2) is crucial to transfer the
Main Battle Tanks (MBT) loading to bridge roadbed and distributed to the concrete. Brief technical specification of selected Armored Vehicle and Vehicles load calculations if total mass of MBT model/variant/weight must be more than 40 ton for the loading consideration.

- I do not understand how to do this question: The answer is G>H>C>F>B>D>E>A but I do not understand why that is the correct answer. Could you explain the formulas used for solving this? Eight cars move along smooth horizontal roadways in the same direction at specified speeds, v, toward identical barriers. All the cars have the same size and shape, but carry different loads and, hence, have different masses, m. The cars collide with the barriers and come to a stop after having traveled some distance. Assume the force exerted on each of the cars by their respective barrier is the same. Rank the situations described here from greatest to smallest according to the stopping distance of each vehicle. If any situations yield the same stopping distance, give them the same ranking. (Use only ">" or "=" symbols. Do not include any parentheses around the letters or symbols.) a. m = 1,800 kg; v = 20 m/s b. m = 1,800 kg; v = 40 m/s c. m = 1,800 kg; v = 60 m/s d. m = 5,400…arrow_forwardA 0.6 ton motor is moving on a leveled highway at a speed of 108 km/hr.

Vehicle 1 was traveling eastward while Vehicle 2, traveling northward, ran through a stop sign and crashed into Vehicle 1. The collision was violent. As the vehicles crushed, they became entangled and moved as one, sliding across the intersection and leaving the road. Here are some technical details of the accident: • Vehicle 2 was larger, weighing 50% more than Vehicle 1. • According to a driver following Vehicle 1, it was traveling at the posted speed limit. • Both streets had the same speed limit. It is not known how fast Vehicle 2 was traveling. • The collision caused Vehicle 1 to divert its path by an angle of 0 = 60°, as shown in the figure. • The street was covered with snow and ice, making conditions very slippery. Use the information above to answer the following questions. (I'm expecting the first question to be fairly straightforward, and the second question to be more tricky.) 1. We know that…arrow_forward
- A 900-kg car travelling east at 15.0 m/s collides with a 750-kg car travelling north at 20.0 m/s The cars stick together. Assume that any other unbalanced forces are negligible What is the change in momentum of the colliding bodies? What is the speed of the wreckage just after the collision? In what direction does the wreckage move just after the collision?arrow_forwardPlease solve this problem with neat step by step solutionsarrow_forwardIII. Determine the horsepower produced by a passenger car travelling at a speed of 68 mi/hr on a radius of curvature of 1,200 ft road of 4% grade with a smooth pavement. Assume the weight of the car is 4500 lb and the cross sectional area of the car is 45 ft².arrow_forward
- A 11,455 kN car has a 4,915 mm wheelbase, with its center of gravity located 536 mm from the pavement and 1,226 mm behind the front axle. Five people weighing on average 75 kg each loaded the vehicle, shifting the center of gravity 138 mm nearer to the rear axle. What is the maximum tractive effort (N) that can be developed if the car is a rear wheel drive? Use coefficient of road adhesion=0.55.arrow_forwardA.

All of the wheels of B were locked, and it slid 6 m after the impact. The coefficient of kinetic friction between B's tires and road was estimated to be u k = 0.8 and the coefficient of restitution of the impact to be e = 0.2. Determine automobile A's velocity in meters per second, just before the impact? Note: You can assume that there was a single impact. VA A Barrow_forward
