A car is travelling at a speed of 60 km/hr on a section of a National Highway having a downward gradient of 2%. The driver of the car suddenly observes a stopped vehicle on the car path at a distance 130 m ahead, and applies brake. If the brake efficiency is 60%, coefficient of friction is 0.7, driver’s reaction time is 2.5 s, and acceleration due to gravity is $9.81 \text{ m/s}^2$, the distance (in meters) required by the driver to bring the car to a safe stop lies in the range

A

126 to 130

B

41 to 45

C

33 to 37

D

75 to 79

The number of trains and their corresponding speeds for a curved Broad Gauge section with 437 m radius, are

  • 20 trains travel at a speed of 40 km/hr
  • 15 trains travel at a speed of 50 km/hr
  • 12 trains travel at a speed of 60 km/hr
  • 8 trains travel at a speed of 70 km/hr
  • 3 trains travel at a speed of 80 km/hr

If the gauge (center-to-center distance between the rail heads) is taken as 1750 mm, the required equilibrium cant (in mm) will be _______ (rounded off to the nearest integer).
