2.2 Force analysis on vehicle
Determing the axle loadings on a vehicle under arbitrary conditions is a simple application of Newton’s Second Law. It is a vital step because the axle loads determine the tractive effort, which infulence the acceleration, gradeability, maximum speed and drawbar effort [5].
The important forces that act on the vehicle are shown in fig: 2.2 Fig 2.2: arbitrary forces acting on a vehicle
W is the weight of the vehicle acting at its CG with a magnitude equal to its mass times the acceleration of gravity. On a slope vehicle will have, a cosine component which is perpendicular to the road surface and a sine component parallel to the road.
If the vehicle is moving along the road, it is convenient to represent the effect by an equivalent inertial force

Thus when the vehicle accelerates, load is transferred from the front axle to the rear axle in proportion to the acceleration and the ratio of the CG height to the wheelbase.
Loads on Grades.
The influence of grade on axle loads is also worth considering. Grade is defined as the “rise” over the “run.” That ratio is the tangent of the grade angle, θ. The common grades on interstate highways are limited to 4 percent whenever possible. On primary and secondary roads they occasionally reach 10 to 12 percent. The cosine of angles this small are very close to one, and the sine is very close to the angle itself. That is: Cos θ = 0.99+ ≈ 1 Sin θ ≈ θ
Thus the axle loads as influenced by grade will be: Wf = W (c / L – h / L θ) = Wfs – W * h / L * θ …………………………………………….2.8 Wr = W (b / L + h / L θ) = Wrs + W * h / L * θ
In Table \ref{parameter_table} we present the values of the input parameters using the DAs of $N$. %In this section, we will only consider the central values of these parameters. \begin{table}[t] \addtolength{\tabcolsep}{10pt} \begin{tabular}{ccccccc} \hline\hline
Using FIT with theses adjusted patterns I feel confident that I will complete this assignment
Therefore, I focused my research on ways to maximize the potential energy. According to Donald (2018), a larger wheel diameter resulted in a further distance. Donald (2018) also explains that the axle turns once each time the string is unwound; therefore, larger wheels rotate more times than the smaller. I also learned that friction and traction were important variables in this experiment. Too much friction could cause the vehicle to stop sooner; however, not enough traction would result in the car “spinning out” (Inspired Learning).

Porter´s Five Forces is the analytical framework chosen to analyse GE´s Playbook. GE is one of the world´s most diverse companies spanning a wide range of businesses (Grant, 2005), including appliances and lighting, aviation, capital (commercial lending and leasing, consumer, real estate, energy financial services, aviation financial services), energy management, healthcare, oil & gas, power & water, and transportation (General Electric, 2015). Some of their customers are: - Aviation, Commercial Engines: Boeing - Capital Inventory Financing: P.C. Richard and Son - Distributed Energy: Songas - Healthcare: Wheaton Franciscan
Final “Driving While Stupid” written by Dave Barry explains to his readers why Miami, Florida is the most dangerous place to drive in in the world because of the reckless drivers. Though it is not a fact that Miami has the most dangerous drivers, he explains why he believes it could be the most dangerous by telling the readers the experiences he has been in in many other places. The way he gets his argument across is by using many different hyperboles to emphasis the main point of this short story. In the beginning of his short story, Dave Barry, gives the readers a setting of the “worst darned drivers in the world.”
Considering ethical concerns within a culture is not of the same caliber as considering ethical concerns among cultures globally. Cultures are each diverse with rich history and customs of their own. This paper discusses cultural relativism by responding to four questions based on the topic. The ethical issues surrounding the process of paying traffic tickets in Mexico City and in the US are a focal point. What is cultural relativism, and how does the vision of ethics associated with it diverge from the traditional ethical theories?
Also, for the safety of other motorist driving on the highway. Based on
In spite of the fact that Disney is included in a wide range of commercial ventures, the industry it fits in with in this particular case is the film distribution industry. As a first stride to assessing Disney 's present situation in the business, we conducted the Porter 's 5 Forces Analysis demonstrated below. •Power of Buyers: The customers in the film distribution industry allude to theaters and retailers that help movies through showings, DVDs, Blu-ray, and so forth. Despite the fact that retailers and theatres settle on a definitive choice of which motion pictures they should to buy, because of the distributor’s size, brand acknowledgment, high client loyalty, bargaining power for retailers and theatres are limited.

Porter’s five forces is a framework that provides analysts with knowledge of the external factors regarding their company and the development of business strategy. These shows people how attractive a company is in a certain industry. I have chosen to develop the porter’s five forces strategy regarding Cisco and the information received. I will evaluate the competiveness, threat of substation, buyer power, supplier power and the threat of new entry.
1.1. Positioning the company – Competition Porsche Automobile Holding SE, usually shortened just to Porsche, is a German holding company with investments in the automotive industry and has about 18,000 employees all over the world (Porsche, 2014). The main competition for Porsche’s high-end cars like the 918 Spyder or the 911 Turbo or Turbo S is arguably from Italian specialty automaker Ferrari. In similar demographics the brands appeal through traditionally vehicles to quite different personalities.
Nowadays, with the improvement of living standard, fashion has becoming more and more important to the world. There are lots of different types of fashion companies all over the world. One of the most popular companies called ZARA. ZARA is a fashion clothes company which was founded at 1975 by Amancio Ortega who is a fashion retailer group company’s founder from Spain. That means ZARA is a subsidiary of INDITEX.
An introduction to highway building: Although there are many methods to constructing a road, all are based on the principle that geographical objects are removed and replaced with harder and more wear-resistant materials. The pre-existing rock and earth is removed by digging or explosions. Tunnels, embankments and bridge are then added when necessary. The material that the road is being constructed from is then laid by various pieces of equipment, which will be looked at in greater detail in this assignment. The construction management of roads has become increasingly more difficult as larger structures are constantly being required in increasingly short amounts of time.
3.2 Industry conditions (Porter 's Five Forces Analysis) Five forces which would impact an organization 's behavior in the market. Understanding the nature of these forces provides organizations the required insights to enable them to formulate the appropriate strategies to be successful in their market (Thurlby, 1998). 3.2.1 Threat of new entrants (high entry barriers) High capital investment for competitor entry into telecommunication industry. Companies in this industry maintain development, spend fairly large amount of capital on network equipment and incurred high fixed costs. Besides, technologies are also considered as barriers for new companies to enter the market.
