Answer and Explanation:

JIT stands for Just In Time Inventory is one where cost is decreased and hence efficiency is increased by reduction in waste.

Advantages of JIT are:

An increase in productivity
Waste elimination
Improved product quality

Disadvantages of JIT are:

Chances and risk of running out of stock
Requirement of big amount of capital investment
Low flexibility and lacking control over time frame.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

material remove in 3 min is 16790.4 mm³/s

Explanation:

given data

length L = 80 cm = 800 mm

width W = 30 cm

height H = 15 cm

make grove length = 80 cm

width = 8 cm

depth = 10 cm

mill toll diameter = 4 mm

axial cutting depth = 20 mm

to find out

How much material removed in 3 minutes

solution

first we find time taken for length of advance that is

time = $\frac{length}{advance}$

here advance is given as 0.001166 mts / sec

so time = $\frac{800}}{0.001166*1000}$

time = 686.106 seconds

now we find material remove rate that is

remove rate = mill toll rate × axial cutting depth × advance

remove rate = 4 × 20×0.001166 ×1000

remove rate = 93.28 mm³/s

material remove in 3 minute = 3 × 60 = 180 sec

so material remove in 3 min = 180 × 93.28

material remove in 3 min is 16790.4 mm³/s

A plate clutch has a single friction surface 9-in OD by 7-in ID. The coefficient of friction is 0.2 and the maximum pressure is

Talja [164]

Answer:

the torque capacity is 30316.369 lb-in

Explanation:

Given data

OD = 9 in

ID = 7 in

coefficient of friction = 0.2

maximum pressure = 1.5 in-kip = 1500 lb

To find out

the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure assumption.

Solution

We know the the torque formula for uniform pressure theory is

torque = 2/3 × $\pi$ × coefficient of friction × maximum pressure ( R³ - r³ ) .....................................1

here R = OD/2 = 4.5 in and r = ID/2 = 3.5 in

now put all these value R, r, coefficient of friction and maximum pressure in equation 1 and we will get here torque

torque = 2/3 × $\pi$ × 0.2 × 1500 ( 4.5³ - 3.5³ )

so the torque = 30316.369 lb-in

A conical enlargement in a vertical pipeline is 5 ft long and enlarges the pipe diameter from 12 in. to 24 in. diameter. Calcula

makkiz [27]

Answer:

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN

Explanation:

From the linear momentum equation theory, since flow is steady, the y components would be;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

We are given;

Length; L = 5ft = 1.52.

Initial diameter;d1 = 12in = 0.3m

Exit diameter; d2 = 24 in = 0.6m

Volume flow rate of water; Q2 = 10 ft³/s = 0.28 m³/s

Initial pressure;p1 = 30 psi = 206843 pa

Thus,

initial Area;A1 = π•d1²/4 = π•0.3²/4 = 0.07 m²

Exit area;A2 = π•d2²/4 = π•0.6²/4 = 0.28m²

Now, we know that volume flow rate of water is given by; Q = A•V

Thus,

At exit, Q2 = A2•V2

So, 0.28 = 0.28•V2

So,V2 = 1 m/s

When flow is incompressible, we often say that ;

Initial mass flow rate = exit mass flow rate.

Thus,

ρ1 = ρ2 = 1000 kg/m³

Density of water is 1000 kg/m³

And A1•V1 = A2•V2

So, V1 = A2•V2/A1

So, V1 = 0.28 x 1/0.07

V1 = 4 m/s

So, from initial equation of y components;

-V1•ρ1•V1•A1 + V2•ρ2•V2•A2 = P1•A1 - P2•A2 - F_y

Where F_y is vertical force of enlargement pressure and P2 = 0

Thus, making F_y the subject;

F_y = P1•A1 + V1•ρ1•V1•A1 - V2•ρ2•V2•A2

Plugging in the relevant values to get;

F_y = (206843 x 0.07) + (1² x 1000 x 0.07) - (4² x 1000 x 0.28)

F_y = 151319.01N = 15.132 KN
