Q = I * t
A capacitor with a capacitance of 100 μF is currently charged to a voltage of 199.8V. How much additional energy is needed to charge it to a voltage of 301.4V. Give answer to 4 significant figures in Joules
W = 0.5 * C * U^2
∆W = W_end – W_start = 0.5 * C ((U_end)^2 – (U_start)^2)
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
E_new = E_old * (1+0.27)/(1+0.69)
Which of the following statements is false regarding the difference between Lead-based batteries, Nickel-based batteries and Lithium-based batteries?
no solution currently
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
40% SoC -> 3.7V and 1.6 mΩ and 80% SoC -> 3.8V and 1.2 mΩ, total open-circuit voltage
71*3.7 + 71*3.8 = 532.5V
Total impedance = 71 * (1.6m/2) + 71*(1.2m/2) = 99.4mΩ
V*I = I^2*R * 80kW
I = 155 A
How long will it take to discharge C1 below 60V using the following constant current sink if it is initially charged at 565V? (MOSFET’s VGSth: 4V) Give answer to two decimal places in secs.
Circuit’s current: MOSFET will operate in linear zone, close to the activation voltage. Therefore, as VGSth is 4V, VS can be taken as 8V. From these 8V and the 47R current limiting resistor, the discharge current of the circuit will be 8/47->0,17A As the constant current discharge of a capacitor depends on capacity, as V=i·t/C-> t=V·C/i=(565-60)·0,0012/0,17=3,56s

Calculate the force Fc working at point C. Give answer in kN rounded to one decimal place.
Forces at point A: Rax = 3kN, Ray = 9kN, Ma = 10kN/m
Moment Equation around point D:
0 = -Fc x 1m – (60kN x 3m) x 4m + Ray x 5.5m – 10kN/m
Fc = -190 510 N
Fc = -190.5 kN
Input the result in kJ/(kg*K), round to 3 decimal numbers sperated by a point (example: 0.136).
The previous season you could recuperate only 25% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 63% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 9.6 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 to one decimal place.
E_new = E_old * (1+0.25)/(1+0.63)
A racing car rolls to a stop on a horizontal course with an initial speed of v.
