A model known as stopping sight distance is used by civil engineers to design roadways. This simple model estimates the distance a driver needs in order to stop his car traveling at a certain speed after detecting a hazard. The model proposed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) is given by
S= V^2/2g(f±G) + TV
where
S =stopping sight distance (ft)
V= initial speed (ft Is)
g= acceleration due to gravity, 32.2 ft /s2
f= coefficient of friction between tires and roadway
G=grade of road
T = driver reaction time (s)
Required:
What are the appropriate units for f and G if the preceding equation is to be homogeneous in units? Show all steps of your work.

To save energy, the air supply to a 2000 ft office has been shut off overnight and the room temperature has dropped to 40°f. in the morning, the thermostat is reset to 70°f and warm air at 120 f begins to flov in at 200ft'/min. the air is well mixed within the room, and an equal mass flow of air at room temperature (changing with time) is withdrawn through a return duct. the air pressure is nearly 1 atm everywhere. ignoring heat transfer with the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, estimate how long it takes for the room temperature to reach 70°f. plot the room temperature as a function of time.
