What's the difference between the frame and the chassis?
What's the main specifications and constrains for designing a vehicle? (List 3 for each)
What's the CG location of the vehicle with these data below?
X=287 mm & Z=1708 mm
X=1820 mm & Z=270 mm
X=1708 mm & Z=287 mm
X=1650 mm & Z=310 mm
Consider a car with the following specs that is parked on the level road. Find the load on the rear and front axels. (M=1765 kg, L=2.84 m, CG to front axel=1.22 m)
Wf= 1006,8 N & Wr= 758.2 N
Wf= 9877 N & Wr= 7438 N
Wf= 7438 N & Wr= 9877 N
Wf= 9760 N & Wr= 7555 N
Describe the process of chassis setting?
Determine the maximum longitudinal acceleration (m/s^2) for the given car data if: a) The car is rear-wheel drive, b) The car is front-wheel drive, c) The car is four-wheel drive
A= 5.03 - B=0.8 - C=0.8
A= 3.2 - B=5.03 - C=2.4
A= 5.03 - B=3.2 - C=7.85
A=5.03 - B=4.1 - C=8.3
