$S=vt+\frac{v^{2}}{254f}$

Here v = 80 km/hr

= $\frac{80\times 1000}{3600}m/s$

f = 0.35 : t = 1.5 + 0.5 = 2sec

putting all the figures in equation

In the above question, what will be the stopping distance if the vehicle is traveling down a 3 per cent grade. Assume all other conditions are same as in question number 48.
- 120 m
- 124 m
- 121 m
- 126 m
Correct

Taking into accounting grade G .

We have

S = $v.t+\frac{v^{2}}{254(f\pm 0.03)}$

Positive sign (+) is for grade up and negative sign (-) is for grade down.

In the present case,

$S=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600}\times 2+\frac{\left(\frac{80\times 1000}{3600}\right)^{2}}{254(0.35-0.03)}$ = 121 m

=> S = 121 m

What is the total super elevation required for a road curve of 300 m radius for a vehicle speed of 80 kmph? The width of the road is 15m and the coefficient of friction is 0.15.
- 0.40 m
- 0.45 m
- 0.32 m
- 0.30 m
Correct

We have the relation for super elevation given by

e + f = $\frac{v^{2}}{127R}$

where, e = super elevation

f = coefficient of friction = 0.15

v = vehicle speed (80 kmph)

R = Radius of rod curve (300 m)

Thus e + f = $\frac{(80)^{2}}{127\times 300}$

$\therefore e\approx 0.17-0.15\approx 0.02$

i.e 1 in 50

$\therefore$ Total super elevation = $0.2\times 15=0.30$

For bituminous surface, a maximum camber of 1 in 60 is required. Thus no super elevation is needed.
