Design Requirements
1. Combination of motors, generators and batteries
2. Capable of regenerative braking3. Ability to be pedaled while at a standstill
in order to further charge batteries4. Ability to be charged using a standard
household power supply5. Minimum range of 10km6. Maximum weight of 90 lbs7. Maximum cost of $2750

Power Requirment
Maximum Power Calculation:
θ = 8.5° (Prince Street)
V = 1.67 m/s (6km/h) (Minimum speed can travel with stability)
n = 5% (Chain + Bearings + Safety Factor)
P = 340.7 Watts (Power required for motor to deliver)

Energy Storage
P Hill = 340.7 W , t = 4.0 min P flat = 64.5 W , t = 28.9 minη=25% (Motor + Battery + Controller + I2R Losses)
E = 71.5 Wh
Electric Charge = Energy/Voltage[Ah] = [Wh]/[V]
Electric Charge = 71.5Wh/36V = 2.0 Ah
