Question 1
A transition curve has a radius of 80 m. Compute the required length for a vehicle to transition safely at a speed of 15 m/sec. Assume a super-elevation rate of 1 in 150.
💡 Hint: Plug in your values for n, b, v, g, and R to find L.
Question 2
Discuss how inadequate super-elevation could affect different types of vehicles differently (e.g., cars vs. trucks).
💡 Hint: Use examples from vehicle dynamics to illustrate your points.
