Actual Overtaking Time given Overtaking Space and Acceleration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Actual Overtaking Time = sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)
T = sqrt((4*s)/a_overtaking)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Actual Overtaking Time - (Measured in Second) - Actual Overtaking Time refers to the specific duration it takes for a vehicle to successfully complete an overtaking maneuver on a road or highway.
Overtaking Space - (Measured in Meter) - Overtaking Space refers to a section of a road or highway where a driver can safely and legally pass another vehicle that is traveling more slowly.
Overtaking Acceleration - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Overtaking acceleration refers to the acceleration a vehicle must undergo when attempting to pass or overtake another vehicle on the road.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Overtaking Space: 27 Meter --> 27 Meter No Conversion Required
Overtaking Acceleration: 7.67 Meter per Square Second --> 7.67 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = sqrt((4*s)/a_overtaking) --> sqrt((4*27)/7.67)

Evaluating ... ...

T = 3.75244379302575

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.75244379302575 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.75244379302575 ≈ 3.752444 Second <-- Actual Overtaking Time

Actual Overtaking Distance

Go Distance of Actual Overtaking = 2*Overtaking Space+Vehicle Speed*sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)

Overtaking Sight Distance given Distance Traveled

Go Overtaking Sight Distance = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle+Distance of Actual Overtaking+Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Actual Overtaking Time given Overtaking Space and Acceleration

Go Actual Overtaking Time = sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)

Actual Overtaking Time given Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Actual Overtaking Time = Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle/Vehicle Speed

Vehicle Speed given Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Vehicle Speed = Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle/Actual Overtaking Time

Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle = Vehicle Speed*Actual Overtaking Time

Acceleration given Actual Overtaking Time and Overtaking Space

Go Overtaking Acceleration = (4*Overtaking Space)/(Actual Overtaking Time^2)

Overtaking Space given Actual Overtaking Time and Acceleration

Go Overtaking Space = (Actual Overtaking Time^2*Overtaking Acceleration)/4

Reaction Time Given Overtaking Distance and Vehicle Speed

Go Reaction Time = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle/Vehicle Speed

Vehicle Speed Given Overtaking Distance and Reaction Time

Go Vehicle Speed = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle/Reaction Time

Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle

Go Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle = Vehicle Speed*Reaction Time

Vehicle Speed given Overtaking Space

Go Vehicle Speed = (Overtaking Space-6)/0.7

Overtaking Space

Go Overtaking Space = 0.7*Vehicle Speed+6

Actual Overtaking Time given Overtaking Space and Acceleration Formula

Actual Overtaking Time = sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)
T = sqrt((4*s)/a_overtaking)

Overtaking Space
