Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given the acceleration capacities of different vehicles, calculate how long it would take a truck to reach a speed of 30 mph from rest if its acceleration rate is 5 mph/s.

💡 Hint: Use the basic formula of time = distance / speed.

Question 2

Design a traffic signal timing plan for an intersection heavily used by both trucks and cars, considering their acceleration characteristics.

💡 Hint: Remember to account for the slower start time of trucks compared to cars.
