The grade is a measure of quality and it captures concentration levels (i.e., how pure a certain fraction is). If grade captures
quality, then Recovery is a measure of quantity: it describes how much of certain material in the input stream is made available for reprocessing. A recovery of R% means that (100 - R)% of the material going into the process is lost, ending up either in mine tailings or as a contaminant in one or more fractions. By weight, copper wire contains about 70% copper and 30% PVC. Suppose we process 1 ton of wire per hour into a copper fraction of 0.74 ton/hour, of which 0.69 is copper and 0.05 is PVC. What is the weight and composition of the tailing?

Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
To calculate weight when the mass is already known, make use of the formula weight = mass times gravitational acceleration. But kindly note that on the surface of the earth, gravitational acceleration is always 9.8 m/s^2, so simply plug in the mass and multiply it by 9.8 to get the weight in newtons.

Answer:
4m/s
Explanation:
We know that power supplied by the motor should be equal to the rate at which energy is increased of the mass that is to be hoisted
Mathematically
\
We also know that Power = force x velocity ..................(i)
The force supplied by the motor should be equal to the weight (mg) of the block since we lift the against a force equal to weight of load
=> power = mg x Velocity........(ii)
While hoisting the load at at constant speed only the potential energy of the mass increases
Thus Potential energy = Mass x g x H...................(iii)
where
g = accleration due to gravity (9.81m/s2)
H = Height to which the load is hoisted
Equating equations (ii) and (iii) we get
m x g x v =
thus we get v = H/t
Applying values we get
v = 6/1.5 = 4m/s
