_____________ curves are curves which, when viewed from the side, are concave upwards. This includes vertical curves at valley bottoms, but it also includes locations where an uphill grade becomes steeper, or a downhill grade becomes less steep.

_____________ curves are curves which, when viewed from the side, are concave upwards. This includes vertical curves at valley bottoms, but it also includes locations where an uphill grade becomes steeper, or a downhill grade becomes less steep. Correct Answer Sag vertical

The most important design criterion for these curves is headlight sight distance. When a driver is driving on a sag curve at night, the sight distance is limited by the higher grade in front of the vehicle. This distance must be long enough that the driver can see any obstruction on the road and stop the vehicle within the headlight sight distance. The headlight sight distance (S) is determined by the angle of the headlight and angle of the tangent slope at the end of the curve.

A shopkeeper has 100 kg of good grade rice and x kg of bad grade rice. He brought good and bad grade rice for Rs. 20 and Rs. 10 respectively. He can sell the good and bad grade rice at Rs. 30 and Rs. 13.5 respectively. Out of x kg, if he mixes y kg of bad grade rice with good grade, he will get a profit of 69 2/7% from total sale. If he mixes y/2 kg of bad grade rice with good grade, he will get a profit of 57.5%. What is the profit he would have got if he sold honestly? (in rupees)
