Answer:

b). false

Explanation:

<u>Lean manufacturing</u>

Lean manufacturing, a philosophy developed by Toyota Production System are means to eliminate wastes. They are defined as the techniques or management activities in eliminating wastes and increasing the efficiency inside an organisation.

According to the concept of lean manufacturing, mainly seven types of wastes are identified. They are :

1. Transportation waste

2. Inventory waste

3. Over production

4. Waiting

5. Defects

6. Motion waste

7. Non utilized talent

All these waste affect greatly to the efficiency of an organisation and devalue its services. Lean manufacturing advises to prevent all these waste in order to increase the productivity.

All the management activities and techniques used in lean manufacturing may be different according to the business application but they are all based on the same basic principle of removing wastes and errors and increase efficiency.

The different sectors that are benefiting from lean manufacturing methodology are

Healthcare

Hospitality

Food and Beverage

Government

Manufacturing

Lean manufacturing can be used in different sectors.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

<u>construction workers</u>

Explanation:

A construction worker is usually someone with the technical skills and abilities needed to manually construct physical infrastructures.

Since a walkway is an infrastructure, hiring skilled construction workers should perform the project of building the series of walkways within the large garden apartment.

In an orthogonal cutting operation, the tool has a rake angle = 12°. The chip thickness before the cut = 0.32 mm and the cut yie

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The shear plane angle and shear strain are 28.21° and 2.155 respectively.

Explanation:

(a)

Orthogonal cutting is the cutting process in which cutting direction or cutting velocity is perpendicular to the cutting edge of the part surface.

Given:

Rake angle is 12°.

Chip thickness before cut is 0.32 mm.

Chip thickness is 0.65 mm.

Calculation:

Step1

Chip reduction ratio is calculated as follows:

$r=\frac{t}{t_{c}}$

$r=\frac{0.32}{0.65}$

r = 0.4923

Step2

Shear angle is calculated as follows:

$tan\phi=\frac{rcos\alpha}{1-rsin\alpha}$

Here, $\phi$ is shear plane angle, r is chip reduction ratio and $\alpha$ is rake angle.

Substitute all the values in the above equation as follows:

$tan\phi=\frac{rcos\alpha}{1-rsin\alpha}$

$tan\phi=\frac{0.4923cos12^{\circ}}{1-0.4923sin12^{\circ}}$

$tan\phi=\frac{0.48155}{0.8976}$

$\phi=28.21^{\circ}$

Thus, the shear plane angle is 28.21°.

(b)

Step3

Shears train is calculated as follows:

$\gamma=cot\phi+tan(\phi-\alpha)$

$\gamma=cot28.21^{\circ}+tan(28.21^{\circ}-12^{\circ})$ $\gamma = 2.155$ .

Thus, the shear strain rate is 2.155.

Voltage drop testing is being discussed.

Airida [17]

Answer:

Technician B only is correct

Explanation:

Voltage drop testing is a method used to find the amount of electrical resistance available in an high amperage circuit that involves connecting the leads of the meter in parallel to the circuits being tested such that disassembly is not required

In voltage drop test, the red voltmeter lead and black voltmeter lead are placed at two points on the same side of the circuit connection such that the leads are in between two positive connection or two negative connection (rather than connecting the red to the positive and the black to the negative sides of the circuit) and digital voltmeter is used for the voltage drop measurement across the lead while the connection is under load.

Therefore, Technician B only is correct
