Your team just found out that it has been deregistered. What of the following could have happened?

You submitted SESA on St Patrick’s day while the deadline was on March 10.

Your resubmitted VSV was not showing an appropriate running vehicle.

You submitted the BPPV 15 days after the deadline.

You failed to prove your ESO’s qualified.

Your team was caught drunk at the competition site.

Select the documents and items that your EV team may not bring on the site of the competition:

Copy of the approved SES

Impact Attenuator Data report

BOMs and DBOMs

ESF

Choose what holds truth about an FS cockpit:

In order for the cockpit to be fully rules-compliant, the templates must pass without the need to remove anything from its’ normal position.

The minimum driver interface requirements for an EV are the accelerator and brake pedal, the AMS indicator, the TS Off indicator, a shutdown button and a “TS activate-deactivate” actuator.

During the inspection of the driver compartment, the cockpit internal cross-section template will be moved 100mm rearwards from the rearmost pedal.

A third pedal exclusively for regenerative braking can be used.

Mirror adjustments in order to maintain driver visibility can be made even if this means changing their geometry in relation to the vehicle.

Choose what is false:

AMS must monitor the current on each cell.

Pouch cells must not carry mechanical loads.

It is illegal to monitor via software the status of the TSAL.

On a car with a TS max voltage of 200 Volts, two circuits with electric withstand voltage of 600 Volts can be considered galvanically isolated.

All devices used on the TS must be rated for DC.

Consider a three-wire three-phase circuit with a balanced 50Hz source in Y configuration and a balanced load in Y configuration. The phase voltage is 230 V and the load in each phase is a 20Ω resistor and a 10uF capacitor. If the three phases a, b and c have a line impedance of 1+1j, 2+2j and 3+3j respectively, what is the voltage magnitude at the load’s center point(Vnn')? Give your answer in V, with two decimals.

Choose what is true about Controller Area Network protocol:

CAN doesn’t care about the distributed intelligence of the vehicle.

The CRC generator bitstring is 110001011001101

In order for 2 microcontrollers to be on the same CAN network, they must have the same endianness.

The maximum bit size of a CAN2.0A packet with a payload of 8 bytes, without the Interframe space is 127 bits.

A CAN2.0A bus has to carry the following messages at the given frequencies. Calculate the network data load percentage in respect to the maximum possible data rate. In your calculations, use bytes. Please round to the second decimal.

What is the mean output of the third opAmp for one period of the source? The first opAmp has a voltage supply of +/- 0.7V and the diode has a forward voltage of 0.7V as well. Give your answer in volts with one decimal.

100g of calcium carbonate are put into the same container with 73g of Hydrochloric Acid. The two elements react fully, producing several substances, one of which is a gas. This gas is isolated and expanded isothermally, from an initial point of STP conditions to a condition where the gas occupies the quadruple volume. What is the work that this expansion results in? Give your answer in kJ with one decimal. Molar Weights (g/mol): Cl: 35.5, H: 1, Ca: 40, O: 16, C: 12. R = 8.314 J/mol K

A vehicle is performing the brake test during technical inspection at a Formula Student Competition. It has a wheelbase of 1.55m and a weight distribution, with driver seated, of 55% rear. If the track and the wheels exhibit a friction coefficient of 1.61, what is the minimum height of the center of gravity of the vehicle so that the rear wheels barely leave the surface of the track when the driver is using all of the available braking force? Assume no aerodynamic or load transfer effects are present. Give your answer with two decimals.

Which of these are true regarding the required shutdown circuit?

Any event which triggers the shutdown circuit must result in the immediate opening of the AIRs

If a voltage reading from the AMS (50Hz sampling frequency) is indicating a value that is under the permitted by the manufacturer and the next reading has not arrived within 480ms, the SDC should open immediately.

The driver must always be able to discern the cause of the SDC opening while seated inside the cockpit.

Any component that opens the shutdown circuit must be able to maintain this condition without the aid of any programmable logic.

Two teams participating in the endurance event of a FS competition has the stats that can be seen in the table. What is the absolute point difference (2 decimals) between the two teams, if the best corrected elapsed time was 1222.11s?
