What is the pressure at the bottom of a 25 ft volume of hydraulic fluid with a weight density of 55 lb/ft3 a. 114.6 psi b. 1375p

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

d) 9.55 psi

Explanation:

pressure at the bottom is =ρgh

weight density is ρg=55 lb/ft³

h=25ft

pressure at the bottom is = $55\times 25$

=1375psf

1 ft = 12 inch

pressure at bottom = $\frac{1375}{12^2}$

= 9.55 psi

so, answer will be option (d) which is 9.55 psi

An airline ticket counter forecasts that 220 people per hour will need to check in. It takes an average of 2 minutes to service

Nadusha1986 [10]

A) Number of agents required to achieve a wait time of 10 minutes or less = 8 agents

B) The number of agents required on duty to reduce cost = 9 agents

Given data :

Arrival rate of customers ( β ) = 220 per hour

Service rate ( mu ) = 60 minutes / 2 minutes = 30 customer per hour

utilization ( rho ) = 220 / 30 ≈ 7

at least 8 server personnel are required for stability of the queue

A) Determine the number of agents required to achieve a wait time of 10 minutes or less per customer

waiting time = 10 - 2 = 8 minutes

number of customers waiting ( ∝ ) = 7 and required server = 8

assuming Lq = 5.2266

Hence the waiting time in line = Lq / arrival rate

= 5.2266 / 220 = 0.0238 hour

= 0.0238 * 60 = 1.428 minutes

Since the waiting time ( 1.428 minutes ) is less than the original waiting time ( 2 minutes ) the number of agents that will achieve a wait time of 10 minutes or less is = 8 agents

B) Determine the number of ticket agents that should be on duty to minimize cost

salary of ticket agent = £12 per hour

cost of customer waiting in queue = £5 per hour per customer

i) When 8 agents are used

waiting time of customers = 0.0238 * 220 = 5.236

waiting cost for customers = 5.236 * 5 = £26.18

employee cost = 8 * 12 = £96

∴ Total cost = 96 + 26.18

= £ 122.18

ii) When 9 agents are used

waiting time for customers = 0.0074 * 220 = 1.628

Wq = 1.6367 / 220 = 0.0074

waiting cost for customers = 1.6367 * 5 = £ 8.1835

assuming Lq = 1.6367

employee cost = 9 * 12 = £ 108

∴ Total cost = 108 + 8.1835 = £ 116.18

From the calculations in ( i ) and ( ii ) the Ideal number of ticket agents that should be on duty to minimize cost should be 9 agents.

Hence we can conclude that A) Number of agents required to achieve a wait time of 10 minutes or less = 8 agents and The number of agents required on duty to reduce cost = 9 agents.
