From an aerial photograph, one observes that on a level section of a (multilane) highway, 25% of the vehicles are trucks, 75% are cars, and there are 50 vehicles per mile of highway. The trucks travel at 40 mph and the cars at 60 mph. This highway also has a section with a steep grade on which the speed of the trucks drops to 25 mph and the speed of the cars to 55 mph. No vehicles enter or exit the subject highway sections (except at the ends). The flows on these highwaysections are stationary, which means that the flows on the level section are equal to those on the grade. Determine
(a) the flow of vehicles on the level section;
(b) the density of vehicles on the grade;
(c) the percent of trucks on the grade as seen from an aerial photo; (d) the percent of trucks as seen by a stationary observer on the grade.
