Your head of powertrain has found a battery cell with excellent specifications and yet cheap. He decides upon a 142s2p accumulator configuration using the cells with a capacity of 5.8 Ah. The manufacturer specifies an internal impedance of 1.5 mOhm. However, after a while you notice the cells are of horrible quality and their real capacity varies significantly leading to an unbalanced accumulator.

He performed experiements to find an approximation of the cells SoC relation to their open-circuit voltage (EMF) as shown in the following figure:

Assume due to imbalance, exactly half of the accumulators cells are at 40% SoC and half at 80% SoC. What current will be drawn at the maximum allowed power usage? Give answer in Amps to nearest whole number

How long will it take to discharge C1 below 60V using the following constant current sink if it is initially charged at 565V? (MOSFET’s VGSth: 4V) Give answer to two decimal places in secs.

How much current flows when 99 C passes down a wire in 11 s? Give answer in amps as a whole number.

Which of the following statements is false regarding the difference between Lead-based batteries, Nickel-based batteries and Lithium-based batteries?

Your team is considering two languages, Verilog and VHDL, for programming an FPGA. Which languages could be used?

A refrigeration unit cools water of mass 3 kg by 33 °C. Find the thermal energy removed from the water. The specific heat capacity of water is 4186 J/kg celsius. Give answer to three significant figures in kJ.

Calculate the pull force on the plate in Newton. Round to 2 numbers seperated by a point (exanple: 9.13)

The Wet Skid Pad World Record was set at FSN2019 by TU Delft. They managed to set a time of 4.901 for the left circle and a time of 5.031 for the right circle. Assume the run was completed perfectly along the center line of the circles. What was their average speed during this record run? Give answer to two decimal places in mph.

Your team is the first car at the design event during FSN2022 and it’s quite cold for this time of the year, 12 degrees C. To impress the judges, you decide to make some tea for them. What is the minimum required time to prepare the tea, knowing that you have to boil 4 tea cups of 370ml each and you have an electrical heater with a power of 500W. Give your answer to the nearest whole number in secs.

The previous season you could recuperate only 25% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 63% of the initially stored energy.  Knowing that you had 9.6 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh to one decimal place.
