A level test track has a coefficient of road adhesion of 0.80, and a car being tested has a coefficient of rolling friction that is approximated as 0.018 for all speeds. The vehicle is tested unloaded and achieves the theoretical minimum stop in 180 ft (from brake application). The initial speed was 60 mi/h. Ignoring aerodynamic resistance, what is the unloaded braking efficiency

the unloaded braking efficiency is 84.6 %

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

by Ignoring aerodynamic resistance; we can find the theoretical stopping distance using the following formula

S = (Y( V₁² - V₂²)) / ( 2g( ηbμ + ± sin∅))

now given that the tracked is levelled, ∅ = 0, also Y = 1.04 for level or flat road

Speed V₁ = 60mil/hr = (60×5280)/(1×60×60) = 316800ft/3600s = 88ft/s

now, we substitute in our values to get the braking efficiency;

180ft = (1.04( (88ft/s)² - 0²)) / ( 2(32.2( (ηb/100)(0.80) + (0.018) ± sin(0°)))

180ft = 8053.76 / ( 64.4)(0.008ηb + 0.018)

180ft = 8053.76 / ( 0.5152ηb + 1.1592)

180( 0.5152ηb + 1.1592)  = 8053.76

( 0.5152ηb + 1.1592) = 8053.76 /180

0.5152ηb + 1.1592 = 44.7431

0.5152ηb = 44.7431 - 1.1592

0.5152ηb = 43.5839

ηb = 43.5839 / 0.5152

ηb = 84.596 ≈ 84.6 %

Therefore,  the unloaded braking efficiency is 84.6 %

s the environmental science is a broader field that incorporates many elements of earth and life sciences, whereas ecology is usually more focused on how organisms interact with each other and their surroundings, and often on a very specific population of living things. soo yea
