Question 1
A highway is designed with a radius of 200 m and a vehicle speed of 50 m/s. Calculate the necessary transition curve length assuming the maximum radial acceleration is 25 cm/s².
💡 Hint: Use the relationship between motion and curvature.
Question 2
A railway track has a super-elevation of 6 cm. If the curve applies super-elevation uniformly with a rate of 1 in 500, determine its transition curve length.
💡 Hint: Think about the direct proportionality in the rates.
