In a Davis steering gear, the distance between the pivots of the front axle is 1.2 metres and the wheel base is 2.7 metres. Find the inclination of the track arm to the longitudinal axis of the car, when it is moving along a straight path.

In a Davis steering gear, the distance between the pivots of the front axle is 1.2 metres and the wheel base is 2.7 metres. Find the inclination of the track arm to the longitudinal axis of the car, when it is moving along a straight path. Correct Answer 12.5°

c = 1.2 m ; b = 2.7 m Let α = Inclination of the track arm to the longitudinal axis. We know that tan α = c/2b = 1.2/2 x 2.7 or, α = 12.5°.

Each of the question below consists of a question and three statements number I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question. If the bus is travelling from Surat to Ahmadabad and a car is travelling from Ahmadabad to Surat, then what is the distance between Surat and Ahmadabad? I. The speed of a car is 40% less than the speed of bus. Bus started at 9 am and car started at 10 am and they meet at 3 pm of the same day. II. After travelling for 1 hour, because of traffic average speed of bus is decreased by 20% and covers distance between Surat to Ahmadabad in 11 hours. Original speed of car is 20% less than original speed of bus and before crossing bus it covered 200 km if starts 1 hour later than bus. After crossing car, bus covers remaining distance in 5 hours. III. Speed of bus is 10 km/hr more than the speed of car and before crossing car ratio of distances covered bus and car in same time was 5 : 4. Time taken by car to cover the distance between Ahmadabad and Surat is 2 hours 15 minutes more than time taken by bus to cover the same distance.
Three cars start from point A together and reach point B at equal intervals. Second car whose sped is less than third car but more than first car taken a u turn and starts its journey towards A whereas third car heads for point C which is 100 km away from point B. First car and third car meet each other at mid way of A and C after third car takes u turn from C. First car travels half the distance between A and B when second reaches B. The sum of speed of second car and third car is 100 kmh.  What is the difference between speed of third car and first car?
The fundamental equation for correct steering is (where $$\varphi $$ and $$\alpha $$ = Angle through which the axis of the outer wheel and inner wheel turns respectively, c = Distance between the pivots of the front axles and d = Wheel base)
The correct steering formula is
where $$\phi $$ and $$\theta $$ = Angle made by outside and inside front wheels respectively with the axle at their extreme positions;
b = Wheel base and c = Distance between the pivot points of the front axle.
Seven people A, B, C, D, E, F and G live on separate floors of a 7-floor building. Ground floor is numbered 1, first floor is numbered. 2 and so on until the topmost floor is numbered 7. Each one of these having a different cars-Cadillac, Ambassador, Fiat, Maruti, Mercedes, Bedford and Fargo but not necessarily in the same order. Only three people live above the floor on which A lives. Only one person lives between A and the one having a car Cadillac. F lives immediately below the one having a car Bedford. The one having a car Bedford lives on an even-numbered floor. Only three people live between the ones having a car Cadillac and Maruti. E lives immediately above C. E is not having a car Maruti. Only two people live between B and the one having a car Fargo. The one having a car Fargo lives below the floor on which B lives. The one having a car Fiat does not live immediately above D or immediately below B. D does not live immediately above or immediately below A. G does not have a car Ambassador. Question : How many people live between the floors on which D and the one having a car Bedford ?
Mohan traveled five cities (A, B, C, D and E) starting from home by a car which has a mileage such that the car can travel 10 km in 1 liter petrol. Distance between city A and B is twice the distance between home to city A. Distance between city B and C is thrice the distance between home to city A. Distance between city C and D is 100. Distance between city D and E is 1.5 times than the distance between B and C. Average distance traveled by Mohan was 41 km between five cities. Find how much petrol was needed by Mohan to travel from city B to D.
