Maximum Frictional Force Developed during Braking Operation of Vehicle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Frictional Force = (Total Weight of Vehicle*Velocity^2)/(2*[g]*Braking Distance)
F = (W*v_vehicle^2)/(2*[g]*l)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 4 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Variables Used

Maximum Frictional Force - (Measured in Newton) - Maximum Frictional Force is the maximum force that opposes motion on a surface, dependent on the sight distance available to a driver.
Total Weight of Vehicle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Weight of Vehicle is the total weight of a vehicle, including the weight of the vehicle itself and its cargo, at a given sight distance.
Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity is the speed at which a vehicle is traveling, typically measured at a specific point in time or over a certain distance.
Braking Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Braking Distance is the distance travelled by the vehicle at the point where brake is applied to the point where it stops.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Weight of Vehicle: 230 Kilogram --> 230 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Velocity: 28.23 Meter per Second --> 28.23 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Braking Distance: 48 Meter --> 48 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F = (W*v_vehicle^2)/(2*[g]*l) --> (230*28.23^2)/(2*[g]*48)

Evaluating ... ...

F = 194.69629345903

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

194.69629345903 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

194.69629345903 ≈ 194.6963 Newton <-- Maximum Frictional Force

What is Maximum Frictional Force Developed during the Braking Operation of Vehicle?

Lag distance refers to the distance a vehicle travels while a driver is reacting to a situation, such as the moment they perceive a need to stop or slow down and the time it takes to actually apply the brakes. This distance is influenced by the driver's reaction time and the speed of the vehicle at the moment the decision is made. Lag distance is an important factor in road safety, as it highlights the need for sufficient stopping sight distance to account for the delay in driver response, thereby helping prevent accidents.
