140 horsepower is equivalent to a 106.4 kilowatt engine. Below are the functions and classifications of engines: Engine Function: The car engine is the power-providing device for automobiles, serving as the heart of the vehicle. It determines the car's power performance, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Engine Classifications: External combustion engines, internal combustion engines, gas turbines, and jet engines. An external combustion engine refers to a type where the fuel is burned outside the engine. Invented in 1816 by Scottish engineer R. Stirling, it is also known as the Stirling engine. This type of engine converts the heat energy generated by combustion into kinetic energy. Watt's improved steam engine is a classic example of an external combustion engine. When a large amount of coal is burned to heat water into a significant volume of steam, high pressure is generated. This high pressure then drives mechanical work, thereby completing the conversion of thermal energy into kinetic energy.

How many meters before a sharp curve is parking prohibited when driving a motor vehicle?

Parking is prohibited within 50 meters before a sharp curve when driving a motor vehicle. Below are details regarding parking restrictions: 1. No-parking zones: Parking is not allowed in sections with no-parking signs or markings, between motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes, on road sections with isolation facilities between the roadway and sidewalks, at pedestrian crossings, or in construction areas. 2. Roadside parking: Vehicles must park closely to the right side of the road. The driver must not leave the vehicle and should depart immediately after passengers alight/board or goods are loaded/unloaded. City buses are prohibited from stopping to pick up or drop off passengers outside designated bus stops.

Can ETC be installed at the black dot position?

ETC can be installed at the black dot position, as long as it does not obstruct the driver's view and can detect the toll station's sensing equipment. However, there are also drawbacks to installing it at the black dot area of the windshield—the solar charging capability of the ETC device may weaken, potentially leading to power depletion over time. The working principle of ETC involves dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle-mounted ETC electronic tag and the ETC microwave antenna at the toll station lane. This utilizes computer networking technology to process backend settlements with banks, enabling vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay fees.

What is the maximum speed limit for motor vehicles when turning or making a U-turn?

Motor vehicles must not exceed 30 km/h when turning or making a U-turns. According to Article 46 of the "Road Traffic Safety Implementation Regulations," motor vehicles must adhere to a maximum speed limit of 30 km/h under the following circumstances (with tractors, battery-powered vehicles, and wheeled special machinery vehicles limited to 15 km/h): 1. When passing through railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, curves, bridges, tunnels, or sections covered in snow, ice, or mud—speed must not exceed 30 km/h in these areas; 2. When making U-turns, turning, descending steep slopes, encountering visibility below 50 meters, or towing another motor vehicle—the maximum speed must also not exceed 30 km/h.

Does the Hyundai Verna need valve adjustment?

Hyundai Verna does not require valve adjustment. The function of the valves is to specifically input air into the engine and expel exhaust gases after combustion. Structurally, the engine has intake valves and exhaust valves. The Hyundai Verna is a model under Beijing Hyundai, with dimensions of 4340mm in length, 1700mm in width, and 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2570mm. It features front-engine, front-wheel-drive configuration. In terms of exterior design, the Hyundai Verna adopts Hyundai's current fluidic sculpture design philosophy, utilizing bold lines to create a sporty, fashionable, and robust image, offering consumers a spacious and comfortable riding experience.

How to Deal with Foggy Windows at Home?

On cold winter days, we often close the indoor window panes and turn on the heating or light a fire to provide the warmth we need. However, after a while, when we look out the window, we find it covered in mist, which affects the view and seems like an endless autumn scene. This often happens when you wake up in the morning. Prepare a towel, clean it with water to remove dust; this works better. Use a detergent (or other cleaning agents like soap, etc.), mix the detergent with water in a basin in a certain proportion, then rub the towel in the water, wring it out slightly, and use it to wipe the glass. This not only removes the fog but also effectively prevents it from forming again for some time. Now, enjoy the clean glass.

Is a 10kpa difference in tire pressure a problem?

A 10kpa difference in tire pressure is within the normal range but at the edge. If it exceeds 10kpa, it may cause the vehicle to veer or wobble. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and veering, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. Sharp objects like nails or glass can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks or blowouts. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increases friction with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to veering, compromising driving safety; Increases movement in tire components, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; Reduces the functionality of cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, causing damage and abnormal wear; Multiplies friction with the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may result in blowouts; Increases tire deformation, leading to sidewall cracks and excessive flexing, generating heat that accelerates rubber aging, cord fatigue, and breakage, while also enlarging the contact area and accelerating shoulder wear.
