<p> TRANSPORT</p><p>The majority of goods are transported from the Federal Warehouse to the stores using either an articulated lorry or a fixed body lorry.</p><p>Type of Vehicle Fuel Consumption Fuel Capacity (Distance travelled using 1 gallon (A full tank will hold) of fuel) Articulated Lorry 7.5 mpg 300 litres Fixed Body Lorry 8 mpg 250 litres</p><p>1. Using the facts that 1 litre = 2.2 pints and 8 pints = 1 gallon work out the fuel capacity of the two vehicles in gallons.</p><p>2.

Both types of lorries use Diesel Engine Road Vehicle fuel ( DERV ). If the cost of 1 litre of fuel is 79.9p how much will it cost to fill up an articulated lorry and how much will it cost to fill up a fixed body lorry?</p><p>4. The fleet of lorries is made up of 6 rigid body lorries and 12 articulated lorries. How much will it cost to fill up the whole fleet of lorries?</p><p>At the warehouse goods are loaded into cages which are then wheeled onto the lorry to be transported to the store.</p><p>The dimensions for an articulated lorry and for a cage are shown on the diagrams below.</p><p>12m</p><p>9 feet 158cm</p><p>82cm 2.4 metres 69cm 5. What is the maximum number of cages that can be wheeled onto the lorry?</p><p>6. If the lorry is full of packed cages what volume of air is left above the cages?</p><p>7. What percentage of the trailer is used to transport the goods?</p><p>8. Using the distance chart below write the distances between the following towns on the route map provided.</p><p>Ipswich - Stowmarket Stowmarket - Eye Eye - Framlingham Ipswich - Woodbridge Woodbridge - Saxmundham Saxmundham - Leiston Leiston - Framlingham</p><p>Eye 0 Felixstowe 45 0 Distances are Framlingham 13 40 0 given in miles Hadleigh 27 31 25 0 Ipswich 21 24 18 7 0 Leiston 23 29 15 35 30 0 Saxmundham 19 26 7 31 27 4 0 Stowmarket 13 36 12 14 12 25 25 0 Woodbridge 28 13 11 18 15 16 13 21 0 E F F H I L S S W p e r e y a t a o s a i e l o x d s i w o m w x m l t d e i s o l m c u i b i t n n g h n a o r g h d r i w h d k h e a g e a m e t m</p><p>9. Using the map together with the chart of distances above is it possible for a lorry to leave the Ipswich warehouse, drop goods at every store and return to the warehouse on a full tank of fuel? 10. How many times can each type of lorry do the journey in question 9?</p><p>11. On the map shade the area within 10kms of Woodbridge. How many marked stores are there within the shaded section?</p><p>12. On the map shade the area within 20kms of Framlingham. How many marked stores are there within the shaded section?</p><p>13. Shade the area which is within 10kms of Woodbridge and also 20kms of Framlingham. How many marked stores are there?</p><p>14. Which towns are located in grid references (3,6), (1,7) and (1,4)?</p><p>15. Write down the grid references for Hadleigh and Leiston.</p><p>Tachodisc</p><p>1. At what time did the journey commence?</p><p>2. What was the maximum speed reached during the journey?</p><p>3. What might have happened at 4pm?</p><p>4. Between what times do you think the driver had breakfast and how long was the stop?</p><p>5. At what time do you think the driver had lunch?</p><p>6. How far did the lorry travel between 10am and 1pm?</p><p>7. How far did the lorry travel between 6am and 9am?</p><p>8. Draw a distance-time graph for the entire journey.</p><p>9. How many kms did the lorry cover in total?</p><p>10. If 1 mile = 1.6 km how far was the journey in miles?</p><p>11. What was the average speed for the entire journey to the nearest whole number?</p><p>12. At what time did the journey finish?</p><p>13. On the blank Tachodisc draw a journey of your own and either describe the journey yourself or make up some questions for someone else in your group.</p>
