13. What is the penatly for hitting over a cone during skidpad?

Steps:

  • calculate average time between left circle and right circle for each run
  • add any penalties to these times
  • decide on the best time of Team A and Team B
  • slowest time between these two best times is T_team
  • fastest time between these two best times gets multipled by 1.25 and is T_max
  • use formula from FSG Rules 2023 D4.4.3

  • ten 12V batteries
  • constant velocity of 80 km/h
  • flat road (friction 1.2kN -> aerodynamic load included)
  • load for battery 160 Ah

How far can you drive with one load? Give answer to nearest whol number in km.

4 / 10

4. 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

5 / 10

5. 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.
