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.
Circuit’s current: MOSFET will operate in linear zone, close to the activation voltage. Therefore, as VGSth is 4V, VS can be taken as 8V. From these 8V and the 47R current limiting resistor, the discharge current of the circuit will be 8/47->0,17A As the constant current discharge of a capacitor depends on capacity, as V=i·t/C-> t=V·C/i=(565-60)·0,0012/0,17=3,56s
The previous season you could recuperate only 27% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 69% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 6.3 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
E_new = E_old * (1+0.27)/(1+0.69)

Which of the following statements about the Tractive System Accumulator are wrong? (Multiple choice)
See FSG rules 2023. Correct answers:
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
40% SoC -> 3.7V and 1.6 mΩ and 80% SoC -> 3.8V and 1.2 mΩ, total open-circuit voltage
71*3.7 + 71*3.8 = 532.5V
Total impedance = 71 * (1.6m/2) + 71*(1.2m/2) = 99.4mΩ
V*I = I^2*R * 80kW
I = 155 A

Quiz „General Engineering“
Calculate the Normal force on the rear left tyre during the first skidpad lap. You can assume, that your vehicle is in a steady-state condition and that there is no longitudinal acceleration. Further it can be assumed, that all 4 wheels have a lateral grip coefficient of 1.4. You can use the centerline radius stated in the rules. Following information regarding the vehicle are given. Give answer to nearest whole number in Newtons.
m = 220 kg
Cl = 3.8
A = 1 m^2
Rho = 1.1 kg/m^3
Wheelbase: L = 1.53
Trackwidth:t = 1.2 m
Height of CG: h = 0.2 m
Weight distribution/COP: 50%
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.
density (rho) = m / V
An object is fired vertically upwards from the ground at time t = 0 s in still air at a speed of 9.6 m/s. On the way up, what is the height of the object above the ground when it has a speed of 1.9 m/s. At what time does it reach this height on the way down? Give both answers separated by a comma to one decimal place.
Possible solution:
A vehicle with the mass 190kg, wheelbase 1,56m and tyre static radius 222mm is weighed. Scales measure 83kg (front) and 107kg (rear) when the car measured on the perfectly flat ground and the same values when the front axle is elevated by 0,85m. What is the car’s COG height? Give answer to the nearest whole number in mm
Fb‘ = m*g (at rear axle while front tyres are lifted)
Fb = m*g (at rear axle while car standing on ground)
Fg = m*g (at COG)
L = wheel base
sin(θ) = H/L
r= radius of tyre
You would like to drink a cup of very hot coffee with milk early in the morning, but you are in a hurry and have only 5 minutes until you have to leave for work. At which time after brewing should you add the cold milk to the coffee and stir in order to decrease the temperature of the mixture as much as possible: a) 0 minutes (immediately), b) 2 minutes, or c) 4 minutes? Suppose that the stirring can be done instantaneously and that you need the last one minute for drinking.
brew temperature C = 80 ◦C, temperature of milk = M = 10 ◦C, room temperature 0 = 20 ◦C, volume of coffee VC = 300 ml, volume of milk VM = 100 ml, specific heat capacity of coffee cC = 4180 J/(kgK), specific heat capacity of milk cM = 3500 J/(kgK).
Please enter only the letter of the corresponding answer
The driving „force“ for the cooling of the coffee is the temperature difference between the warm coffee and the environment (room temperature), which leads to an exponential drop in coffee temperature. The temperature difference is greatest immediately after brewing. The later we stir in the milk, the lower the coffee temperature has already dropped. On the other hand, lowering the temperature by the milk becomes smaller the longer we wait. So we let the coffee cool down on its own for as long as possible in order to bring about the temperature reduction by the cold milk at the end. The greatest possible cooling is therefore achieved when the milk is added after 4 minutes.
Calculate the force Fc working at point C.
Rax = 4kN, Ray = 10 kN
Rbx =5 kN, Rby = 8 kN
Moment equation around point D:
0 = -Fc x 1m + Rby x 2.5 m – 60 kN x 4 m + Ray x 5.5 m
Fc = -165 000 N
Fc = – 165 kN
