Solution 1:   Test Sequence 1 Result: In test sequence 1 there are different states: Driving: During time period of 0 to 3000 sec driving condition is selected which means battery is been discharge. As a result…

Lithium ion Batteries   It was not until the early 1970s that the first non-rechargeable lithium batteries became commercially available. Attempts to develop rechargeable lithium batteries followed in the 1980s but the endeavor failed because of instabilities in the metallic lithium used as anode material. Lithium…

Question 1: Search and list out the total weight of various types of aircrafts? Solution 1: Basic Empty Weight (BEW) is the weight of the aircraft "as built" and includes the weight of the structure, power plant, furnishings, installations, systems and other equipment that are considered an integral part of an aircraft…

Question 1: For a defined driving cycle, calculate the energy required for braking. Solution 1: Drive cycle date shown in excel sheet is of UDDS drive cycle. Formula used to calculate drive cycle is given below: `E=((1/2*m*v^2)/1000)` Another random drive cycle is taken and energy is calculated with respect the drive cycle.…

Question 1: Run MATLAB demo ‘Speed control of a DC motor using BJT H-bridge’.
