Distance between Front and Rear Wheel Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Distance between Front and Rear Wheel = 2*Radius of Outer Track Line of Front Wheel*Mechanical Widening on Horizontal Curves-Mechanical Widening on Horizontal Curves^2
l_fr = 2*R₂*W_m-W_m^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Distance between Front and Rear Wheel - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Front and Rear Wheel is the horizontal distance between the front and rear wheels of a vehicle on a curved road section.
Radius of Outer Track Line of Front Wheel - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Outer Track Line of Front Wheel is the distance from the center of the wheel to the outer edge of the front wheel track line in superelevation design.
Mechanical Widening on Horizontal Curves - (Measured in Meter) - Mechanical Widening on Horizontal Curves is the process of increasing the pavement width on horizontal curves to ensure safety and comfort of vehicles.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Radius of Outer Track Line of Front Wheel: 32 Meter --> 32 Meter No Conversion Required
Mechanical Widening on Horizontal Curves: 0.37 Meter --> 0.37 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

l_fr = 2*R₂*W_m-W_m^2 --> 2*32*0.37-0.37^2

Evaluating ... ...

l_fr = 23.5431

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

23.5431 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

23.5431 Meter <-- Distance between Front and Rear Wheel
