Accidents occur as a result of ____ and ___

A plant has ten machines and currently operates two 8-hr shift per day, 5 days per week, 50 weeks per year. the ten machines pro

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

83.6%

Explanation:

On its current schedule, the plant can theoretically produce ...

(30 pc/h/machine)(10 machine)(8 h/shift)(2 shift/day)(5 day/wk)(50 wk/yr)

= (30)(10)(8)(2)(5)(50) pc/yr = 1,200,000 pc/yr

__

On the proposed schedule, this production becomes ...

(30 pc/mach)(10 mach)(8 h/sh)(3 sh/da)(6 da/wk)(51 wk/yr)

= (30)(10)(8)(3)(6)(51) pc/yr = 2,203,200 pc/yr

The increase in capacity is ...

(2,203,200/1,200,000 -1) × 100% = 83.6% . . . capacity increase

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The number of parts per shift did not change. Only the number of shifts per year changed. It went up by a factor of (3/2)(6/5)(51/50) = 1.836. Hence the 83.6% increase in capacity.

We have to assume that maintenance and repair are done as effectvely as before in the reduced down time that each machine has.

Mila [183]

Answer:

As many variables as we can coherently communicate in 2 dimensions

Explanation:

Visualization is a descriptive analytical technique that enables people to see trends and dependencies of data with the aid of graphical information tools. Some of the examples of visualization techniques are pie charts, graphs, bar charts, maps, scatter plots, correlation matrices etc.

When we utilize a visualization on paper/screen, that visualization is limited to exploring as many variables as we can coherently communicate in 2-dimensions (2D).

Why is it reasonable to say that no system is 100% efficient?

Virty [35]

Generally, frictional losses are more predominant for the machines being not 100% efficient. This friction leads to the loss of energy in the form of heat, into the surroundings. Some of the supplied energy may be utilised to change the entropy (measure of randomness of the particles) of the system.

At an impaired driver checkpoint, the time required to conduct the impairment test varies (according to an exponential distribut

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average time required = 60 seconds

Therefore,

The maximum capacity that can be accommodated on the system, μ = 60 veh/hr

Average Arrival rate, λ = 30 vehicles per hour

Now,

The average time spent by the vehicle is given as

⇒ $\frac{1}{\mu(1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu})}$

thus,

on substituting the respective values, we get

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-\frac{30}{60})}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-0.5)}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(0.5)}$

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}$ hr/veh

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}\times60$ min/veh

[ 1 hour = 60 minutes]

thus,

Average time spent by the vehicle = 2 min/veh

Hence,

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Which of the following is NOT true concerning the color of minerals? A. Some minerals have a consistent color, but many have a r

mixer [17]

Answer:

Option D

A mineral’s color reflects the wavelengths of light that are absorbed by the mineral.

Explanation:

Color is one of the physical properties of minerals. Many minerals have a wide range of colors but there are some minerals with one consistent color and such minerals are referred as monochromatic minerals for example azurite. Normally, the streak color tends to be less variable than the color of the whole mineral and impurities or minor chemical components in a mineral react and often control the display color of resultant mineral. Option D is incorrect since mineral's color don't reflect wavelengths of light absorbed by such minerals.
