8. The previous season you could recuperate only 27% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 69% of the initially stored energy.  Knowing that you had 6.3 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh

9. The following processes have to be measured by the AMS. (Multiple choice)

10. Your head of powertrain has found a battery cell with excellent specifications and yet cheap. He decides upon a 142s2p accumulator configuration using the cells with a capacity of 5.8 Ah. The manufacturer specifies an internal impedance of 1.5 mOhm. However, after a while you notice the cells are of horrible quality and their real capacity varies significantly leading to an unbalanced accumulator.

He performed experiements to find an approximation of the cells SoC relation to their open-circuit voltage (EMF) as shown in the following figure:

Assume due to imbalance, exactly half of the accumulators cells are at 40% SoC and half at 80% SoC. What current will be drawn at the maximum allowed power usage? Give answer in Amps to nearest whole number

1. In a gas pipe, the gas pressure pG is measured using a U-tube manometer connected at the bottom. Above the meniscus of the measuring liquid (mercury with density ρQ) on the gas side, there is a column of water with height h₂ and density ρW.
Question:
What negative pressure △pU (vacuum) exists in the pipe compared to the external pressure p₀?

Result in Pa, two decimal numbers seperated by a point (exp. 15.3). Do not put the Unit in the field below.

2. Calculate the gravitational potential energy of a 4 kg object at 15 m above Earth’s surface with gravitational field strength of 9.81 N/kg. Give answer to three significant figures in J.

3. A racing car rolls to a stop on a horizontal course with an initial speed of v. It decelerates
only by friction with a rolling resistance of μF, which is supposed to be independent of
the current velocity.
What is the distance s the car needs to stop?
v = 230mph, μF = 0.17, g = 9.81 m/s2.
Give your answer in meters, rounded to four significant places.
