Assuming a linear speed-density relationship, the mean free speed is observed to be 60 mph near zero density, and the corresponding jam density is 140 veh/mi.
a) Write down the speed-density and flow-density equations.
b) Sketch the v-k, v-q, and q-k diagrams indicating the critical values.
c) Compute speed and density corresponding to a flow of 1000 veh/hr
Note: 5,280 ft = 1 mile.
