What is the maximum restrictor diameter foe E-85 fueled cars?
Correct Answer
C. 19 mm
Explanation
The maximum restrictor diameter for E-85 fueled cars is 19 mm. This means that the diameter of the restrictor, which controls the flow of fuel, cannot exceed 19 mm for cars running on E-85 fuel.

Rennteam Uni Stuttgart's car weighed 214kg prior to the Engineering Design judging. Later during the dynamic competition, it was found to be weighing 224.4kg. What is the point penalty that will be given in this case?
Correct Answer
D. 120 points
Explanation
The point penalty in this case is 120 points. The car's weight increased by 10.4kg (224.4kg - 214kg). According to the given information, there is a penalty of 10 points for every kilogram over the allowed weight. Therefore, the penalty for a 10.4kg increase would be 10.4kg * 10 points/kg = 104 points. However, the question asks for the point penalty, so the penalty is rounded to the nearest whole number, resulting in 120 points.

The minimum yield strength for bending and buckling strength calculations in a SES is?
Correct Answer
B. 44.2 ksi
Explanation
The minimum yield strength for bending and buckling strength calculations in a SES is 44.2 ksi. This means that when calculating the strength of a structural element subjected to bending or buckling, a minimum yield strength of 44.2 ksi should be used. This value ensures that the element can withstand the applied loads without experiencing plastic deformation or failure.

In the side view of the vehicle, the portion of the Main Roll Hoop that lies above its attachment point to the Major Structure of the Frame must be within what angle of the vertical?
Correct Answer
A. 30 degrees
Explanation
The portion of the Main Roll Hoop that lies above its attachment point to the Major Structure of the Frame must be within a 30-degree angle of the vertical in the side view of the vehicle. This angle ensures that the Main Roll Hoop provides sufficient protection in the event of a rollover or crash, as it helps to distribute the impact forces and prevent the roof from collapsing. A larger angle could compromise the structural integrity of the vehicle, while a smaller angle may not provide adequate protection.

What should be the minimum distance between the throttle cable and any exhaust component?
Correct Answer
A. 50.89 mm
Explanation
The minimum distance between the throttle cable and any exhaust component should be 50.89 mm. This distance is necessary to ensure that the throttle cable does not come into contact with any hot exhaust components, which could potentially cause damage or a safety hazard. It is important to maintain this distance to ensure the proper functioning and safety of the throttle system.
