Quiz „Electrical“
1. 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
2. You have an electric car with these specifications:
How far can you drive with one load? Give answer to nearest whol number in km.
3. Which of the following statements is false regarding the difference between Lead-based batteries, Nickel-based batteries and Lithium-based batteries?
no solution currently
4. Which of the following statements regarding the Brake System is false?
See FSG rules 2023: T6.1.10
5. How much current flows when 99 C passes down a wire in 11 s? Give answer in amps as a whole number.
Q = I * t
6. 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
7. You want to drive with a Lithium Polymer Cell with 3.2 Ah and weighing 70 g. Which of the following configurations would be allowed by the rules? Hint: Unorm = 3.7 V, Umax = 4.2 V

9. Which of the following statements about the Tractive System Accumulator are wrong? (Multiple choice)
See FSG rules 2023. Correct answers:
10. 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)

Give both answers separated by a comma to one decimal place.
Possible solution:
4. 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)
Input the result in kJ/(kg*K), round to 3 decimal numbers sperated by a point (example: 0.136).
6. A helicopter of mass 4200 kg is carrying a crate using a light extensible rope. The crate has a total mass of 800 kg, including its contents. The helicopter and crate are accelerating upwards at 2.0 ms^-2. What is the tension in the rope? Use gravititational field strength g is 9,81 N/kg. Air resistance can be ignored. Give answer to nearest whole number in Newtons
Tension = net force -> Tension = m*a (of system) + m*g (of system)
7. Using an indicator, the cylinder pressure can be plotted as a curve over the piston stroke. The curve recorded for the compression stroke of an internal combustion engine can be approximated by the relationship p⋅V^n=const..
