Q2) The following travel times were measured for vehicles traversing a 2,000 ft. segment of an arterial: Vehicle Travel Time (s) 1 40.5 2 44.2 3 41.7 4 47.3 5 46.5 6 41.9 7 43.0 8 47.0 9 42.6 10 43.3 Determine the time mean sped (TMS) and space mean speed (SMS) for these vehicles.

TMS = 45.78 m/s

SMS = 45.66 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Vehicle Travel Time (s)

1 40.5

2 44.2

3 41.7

4 47.3

5 46.5

6 41.9

7 43.0

8 47.0

9 42.6

10 43.3

Time mean speed and space mean speed are parameters used to express the speed of a group of vehicles in traffic flow.

Time mean speed is given as the average speed of all the cars

The speed for each vehicle is calculated by dividing the (2000 ft) distance by the time taken by each vehicle to complete that segment of the journey.

Let vehicle = V

Travel time = time

Speed = s

V | Time | speed (ft/s)

1 | 40.5 | 49.383

2 | 44.2 | 45.249

3 | 41.7 | 47.962

4 | 47.3 | 42.283

5 | 46.5 | 43.011

6 | 41.9 | 47.733

7 | 43.0 | 46.512

8 | 47.0 | 42.553

9 | 42.6 | 46.948

10| 43.3 | 46.189

TMS = (Σsᵢ)/N

Σsᵢ = (49.383+45.249+47.962+42.283+43.011+47.733+46.512+42.553+46.948+46.189)

Σsᵢ = 457.823

N = number of vehicles = 10

TMS = 457.823 ÷ 10 = 45.7823 = 45.782 m/s

b) Space mean speed is given as

SMS = N ÷ [Σ (1/sᵢ)]

V | Time | speed | (1/sᵢ)

1 | 40.5 | 49.383 | 0.02025

2 | 44.2 | 45.249 | 0.02210

3 | 41.7 | 47.962 | 0.02085

4 | 47.3 | 42.283 | 0.02365

5 | 46.5 | 43.011 | 0.02325

6 | 41.9 | 47.733 | 0.02095

7 | 43.0 | 46.512 | 0.02150

8 | 47.0 | 42.553 | 0.02350

9 | 42.6 | 46.948 | 0.02130

10| 43.3 | 46.189 | 0.02165

Σ (1/sᵢ) = (0.02025+0.02210+0.02085+0.02365+0.02325+0.02095+0.02150+0.02350+0.02130+0.02165)

Σ (1/sᵢ) = 0.219

SMS = 10 ÷ [Σ (1/sᵢ)] = 10 ÷ 0.219

SMS = 45.662 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!
