Length of Parabolic Sag Curve with Given Change in Grade Per Station

Problem
A grade of -5% is followed by a grade of 1%, the grades intersecting at the vertex (Sta. 10 + 060). The change of grade is restricted to 0.4% in 20 m. Compute the length of the vertical parabolic sag curve in meters.

A.   360 m C.   300 m
B.   320 m D.   340 m

Problem 04 - Symmetrical Parabolic Curve

Problem
A highway engineer must stake a symmetrical vertical curve where an entering grade of +0.80% meets an existing grade of -0.40% at station 10 + 100 which has an elevation of 140.36 m. If the maximum allowable change in grade per 20 m station is -0.20%, what is the length of the vertical curve?
A.   150 m
B.   130 m
C.   120 m
D.   140 m
