19. A team missed the intial deadline for a document and submitted this 49 hours after the deadline. After that the team’s document got accepted. The team will recieve a 10 point penalty.

Steps:

  • calculate average time between left circle and right circle for each run
  • add any penalties to these times
  • decide on the best time of Team A and Team B
  • slowest time between these two best times is T_team
  • fastest time between these two best times gets multipled by 1.25 and is T_max
  • use formula from FSG Rules 2023 D4.4.3

8. A thin circular, isolated wire made of copper with radius R lies on a table with its ends
connected to a Volt meter. Another, straight wire lies exactly along a diameter of the
circular wire, connected to an alternate current source i(t) = I0 sin(wt).
The experimental setup is shown in the following Figure:

Which effective voltage Ueff does the Volt meter display?

9. 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
