Answer:

Explanation:

Total Stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance and the braking distance, such that ;

d=dr + db =1.47St +[ ( Si 2- Sf2 ) / 30(F/0.01G) ]

In this case, the reaction time, t, is the AASHTO standard, or 2. 5 s. The friction factor, F, is based upon the standard AASHTO deceleration rate of 11.2 ft/s2 (F = 11.2/32.2 = 0.348) and the speed is given as 40 mph.

d = 1.47x60x2.5+ [ (60^2-40^2) / 30x 0.348 ]

d = 220.5 + ( (3600-1600) / 10.44 )

d = 220.5 + 191.57

d = 412.07ft.

Since the sign can be seen clearly at 120 ft.

Then the position of the sign should be,

= 412.07 - 120

= 292.07 ft

There are 20 forging presses in the forge shop of a small company. The shop produces batches of forgings requiring a setup time
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Considering the guidelines of this exercise.

The pieces produced per month are 504 000

The productivity ratio is 75%

Explanation:

To understand this answer we need to analyze the problem. First of all, we can only produce 2 batches of production by the press because we require 3 hours to set it up. So if we rest those 6 hours from the 8 of the shift we get 6, leaving 2 for an incomplete bath. So multiplying 2 batches per day of production by press we obtain 40 batches per day. So, considering we work in this factory for 21 days per month well that makes 40 x 21  making 840 then we multiply the batches for the pieces 840 x 600 obtaining 504000 pieces produced per month. To obtain the productivity ratio we need to divide the standard labor hours meaning 6 by the amount of time worked meaning 8. Obtaining 75% efficiency.
