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

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

Which of the following requirements of the brake light assembly must be met to be rules compliant? (multiple choice)

A thin circular, isolated wire made of copper with radius R lies on a table with its ends
connected to a Volt meter. Another, straight wire lies exactly along a diameter of the
circular wire, connected to an alternate current source i(t) = I0 sin(wt).
The experimental setup is shown in the following Figure:

Which effective voltage Ueff does the Volt meter display?
R = 10 cm, maximum current I0 = 1 A, f = 50 Hz.
Give your answer in Volts with three decimal places

Which statements about the travel of the driving pedal is correct

Which of the following statements about the Tractive System Accumulator are wrong? (Multiple choice)

Which of the following statements about LV battery packs with lithium based chemistry other than LiFePo4 is not true?

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

You would like to drink a cup of very hot coffee with milk early in the morning, but you
are in a hurry and have only 5 minutes until you have to leave for work. At which time
after brewing should you add the cold milk to the coffee and stir in order to decrease the
temperature of the mixture as much as possible:
a) 0 minutes (immediately),
b) 2 minutes, or
c) 4 minutes?
Suppose that the stirring can be done instantaneously and that you need the last one
minute for drinking.

brew temperature C = 80 ◦C, temperature of milk = M = 10 ◦C, room temperature
0 = 20 ◦C, volume of coffee VC = 300 ml, volume of milk VM = 100 ml, specific heat
capacity of coffee cC = 4180 J/(kgK), specific heat capacity of milk cM = 3500 J/(kgK).
