2 / 10

2. You have an electric car with these specifications:

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

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

3 / 10

3. Which statements about the travel of the driving pedal is correct

4 / 10

4. Your team is considering two languages, Verilog and VHDL, for programming an FPGA. Which languages could be used?

5 / 10

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

6 / 10

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

7 / 10

7. 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.

9 / 10

9. 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
