Problem 5(20%)
In a segment of a highway, a total flow of 1500vehh is observed. All the vehicles are homogeneous and travel at 44.4kmh. You know that traffic can be modelled by:
v=0.5vf*(1+[1-q1950]12)
For q1950, where v represents speed, vf free-flow speed, and q flow. Determine the value of vf, the jam density, and the maximum capacity of the highway.
