The cars gear reduction ratio is 35 to 1 driveline


A car is traveling on a paved road with CD = 0.35, Af = 21 ft2, W = 3000 lb, x = 0.002378 slugs/ft3. Its engine is running at 3000 rpm and is producing 250 ft-lb of torque. The car's gear reduction ratio is 3.5 to 1, driveline efficiency is 90%, driveline slippage is 3.5%, and the road-wheel radius is 15 inches. What will the car's maximum acceleration be under these conditions on a level road?
