Carousel conveyors are used for storage and order picking for small parts. The conveyorsrotate clockwise or counterclockwise, as

necessary, to position storage bins at the storageand retrieval point. The conveyors are closely spaced, such that the operators travel timebetween conveyors is negligible. The conveyor rotation time for each item equals 1 minute;the time required for the operator to retrieve an item after the conveyor stops rotatingequals 0.25 minute. How many carousel conveyors can one operator tend without creatingidle time on the part of the conveyors

Answer:

the number of carousel conveyors that an operator can operate without any idle time is 5

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

first we express the equation for number of carousel conveyors that can be operated by an operator;

n' = \frac{(a + t)}{( a + b)}

where a is the concurrent activity time ( 0.25 minute )

b is the independent operator activity time

t is the independent machine activity time( 1 )

Now independent activity time is zero as the operator is not performing any inspection or packaging tasks.

So time taken for the operator to retrieve the finished item at the end of the process is the concurrent activity and independent machine activity time, the conveyor rotation time of each item

so

we substitute

0.25min for a, 1 for t and 0min for b

n' = \frac{(0.25min + 1min)}{( 0.25min+ 0 min)}

n' = 1.25 min / 0.25

n' - 5

Therefore, the number of carousel conveyors that an operator can operate without any idle time is 5

How long would it take to travel 10 light years at the speed of light?
Vladimir79 [104]

A light year is the DISTANCE light travels through vacuum in 1 year.

If light is traveling through vacuum, then it's traveling at the speed of light in vacuum. If a student at home at the beginning of the trip is holding the clock, then ...

Traveling 1 light year takes 1 year.

Traveling 2 light years takes 2 years.

Traveling 3 light years takes 3 years.

Traveling 10 light years takes 10 years.

If the light is traveling through some other substance, or if the clock is traveling along with the light, then these numbers all change.

YOU cannot travel at the speed of light. We have to just leave it at that

A 250 g object is hung onto a spring. It stretches 18 cm. Find the spring's spring constant
Juliette [100K]
<h2>Answer: 13.61 N/m</h2>

Hooke's law establishes that the elongation of a spring is directly proportional to the modulus of the force F applied to it, <u>as long as the spring is not permanently deformed</u>:

F=k (x-x_{o})    (1)

Where:

k is the elastic constant of the spring. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring.

x_{o} is the length of the spring without applying force.

x is the length of the spring with the force applied.

According to this, we have a spring where only the force due gravity is applied.

In other words, the force applied is the weigth W of the block:

W=m.g   (2)

Where m=250g=0.25kg is the mass of the block and g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the gravity acceleration.

W=(0.25kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})   (3)

W=2.45N   (4)

Knowing the force applied W and x=18cm=0.18m and x_{o}=0, we can substitute the values in equation (1) and find k:

W=k (x-x_{o})    (5)

2.45N=k (0.18m-0m)    (6)

<u>Finally:</u>

k=13.61\frac{N}{m}
