Renatta Oyles car driving down 84th street like she is has a velocity of a leftward direction and a leftward direction for acceleration. Velocity is defined as the speed of an object that is going in a certain direction. In this case her velocity is in a leftward direction because she is starting on the right and her car is moving to the left. She is starting on the right because in the diagram is shows that she was stopped on the right and those are the first dots in the diagram because she…
The vehicle is straight and far. Our car went straight because on our v-log our car had a consistent measurement because most of the time our car stayed 11ft. Our car stayed straight because it had a consistent distance, which means that our car went straight and didn’t veer. The vehicle went straight and far. Our car went far because on our v-log it says that our car went 6 ½ ft in 5 ½ seconds, which means our car traveled far in a short amount of time. Our car is made of coaster-car body…

The vehicle parameters such as suspension spring stiffness and damping coefficient, the temperature control inside the cabin, the ergonomics of the car and many other factors contribute to this quality. When vehicles travel on the irregular roads, they are always subjected to excitation from braking, acceleration and inertial forces on a curved track, which causes discomfort to the driver. The excitation sources for these vibrations can be road roughness, wheel assembly, driveline excitation,…
Imagine a street that no longer needs traffic lights or traffic signs. A public space that allows both automobiles and pedestrians alike to share the road.
