Hoosier Manufacturing operates a production shop that is designed to have the lowest unit production cost at an output rate of 1

15 units per hour. In the month of July, the company operated the production line for a total of 205 hours and produced 21,400 units of output. What was its capacity utilization rate for the month?

Answer:

90.77%

its capacity utilization rate for the month is 90.77%

Explanation:

The capacity utilisation rate can be expressed mathematically as;

Capacity utilisation rate = capacity used/Best operating level × 100%

Given;

Total Number of production time = 205hours

Production output/capacity used = 21400 units

Best operation rate = 115units/hour

Best operation output for the month of July( at best operation level )

=115units/hour × 205 hours = 23575 units

Capacity utilisation rate = 21400/23575 × 100%

= 90.77%

A 2kg box is pushed along a flat frictionless surface with an applied force of 53.91newton j+19.62 j were j is horizontal and j
tamaranim1 [39]

Since the box doesn't move vertically at all, no work is done by the vertical component of the force.

If 53.91 Newtons is the horizontal component of the force (very unclear in the question), then the work done is

<u>Work = (force) x (distance)</u>

Work = (53.91 N) x (10 m)

<em>Work = 539.1 Joules</em>

<u>Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)</u>

Power = (539.1 joules) / (90 sec)

Power = (539.1/90) (joule/sec)

<em>Power = 5.99 watts</em>

=====================================

Note:  If the mass of the box is only 2 kg, and you push it along the surface with a constant force of 53⁺ Newtons, and the surface really is frictionless, then that box is gonna cover a WHOOOOOLE LOT more than 10 meters in 90 seconds.  I get 109,168 meters !

In part B of the lab, when the current flows through the orange part of the wire from right to left, the wire deflects (or moves
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

This seems to be incomplete, as we do not have any information about the magnetic field surrounding the wire, but we can answer in a general way.

We know that for a wire of length L, with a current I, and in a magnetic field B, the force can be written as:

F = L*(IxB)

if we define the right as the positive x-axis, and knowing that the current flows to the right, we can write:

I = i*(1, 0, 0)

And the field will be some random vector that can't be parallel to the current because in that case, we do not have any force.

To find the direction of the force, which will tell us the direction in which the wire deflects or moves, first, we need to point with our thumb in the direction of the current, in this case, to the right.

Now, with the hand open, using the tip of our other fingers we point in the direction of the magnetic field.

For example, if the magnetic field is in the positive z-axis, we will point upwards.

Now the palm of our hand tells us in which direction the force is applied.

This is the right-hand rule.

For example, in the case that the current goes to the right and the magnetic field is upwards, we could see that the force is to the front.

A metal wire breaks when its tension reaches 100 newton. If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would br
serg [7]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Since Young's modulus for the metal, E = σ/ε where σ = stress = F/A where F = force on metal and A = cross-sectional area, and ε = strain = e/L where e = extension of metal = change in length and L = length of metal wire.

So,  E = σ/ε = FL/eA

Now, since at break extension = e.

So making e subject of the formula, we have

e = FL/EA = FL/Eπr² where r = radius of metal wire

Now, when the radius and length are doubled, we have our extension as e' = F'L'/Eπr'² where F' = new force on metal wire, L' = new length = 2L and r' = new radius = 2r

So, e' = F'(2L)/Eπ(2r)²

e' = 2F'L/4Eπr²

e' = F'L/2Eπr²

Since at breakage, both extensions are the same, e = e'

So,  FL/Eπr² = F'L/2Eπr²

F = F'/2

F' = 2F

Since F = 100 N,

F' = 2 × 100 N = 200 N

So, If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would break when the tension reached 200 Newtons.
