The flow and density of a highway were observed to follow the triangular model as given below:
q = {50k, k< _kc 10(kj - k), k > _kc
where kj is the jam density kc and is the critical density at which the traffic reaches maximum flow (the units of flow, density, and speed in the above equationare veh/hour, veh/mile and mile/hour). a traffic engineer took a measurement of the spacing when traffic is at a standstill and found it is 17.6 ft:
a. what is the critical density at which the flow reaches its maximum?
b. what is the maximum flow that can be reached on this highway?

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10
