- Q5/ A beam with a length L is attached to the wall with a cable as shown. A load W = 400 lb. is attached to the beam. The tension force, T, in the cable is given by: T=! WL√/h²+x² hx For a beam with L = 120 in and h=50 in calculate T for x = 10, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 110 in.arrow_forwardA company manufactures two types of trucks. Each truck must go through the painting shop and the assembly shop. If the painting shop were completely devoted to painting type 1 trucks, 800 per day could be painted, whereas if the painting shop were completely devoted to painting type 2 trucks, 700 per day could be painted. If the assembly shop were completely devoted to assembling truck 1 engines, 1500 per day could be assembled, whereas if the assembly shop were completely devoted to assembling truck 2 engines, 1200 per day could be assembled. It is possible, however, to paint both types of trucks in the painting shop. Similarly, it is possible to assemble both types in the assembly shop. Each type 1 truck contributes $1000 to profit; each type 2 truck contributes $1500. Use Solver to maximize the company’s profitarrow_forwardMaps Remaining Time: 58 minutes, 28 seconds.

- The JAV Company manufactures two types of lamps; Special lamp and regular lamp. Each special lamp requires 4 pounds of brass and each regular lamp requires 8 pounds of brass. During each production period, the company's brass supply limited to 640 pounds. Each special lamp requires 6 hours of milling time in the machines and each regular lamp requires 2 hours of milling time in the machine, The company's machine are available only for 360 hours in each production period. Each special lamp requires 5 light bulbs that must be imported from Hongkong. The importation of these bulb is limited to 200 units. The contribution to profit of each special lamp and regular lamp are P400 and P360 respectively. How many units of the special lamp and regular lamp should be produced per production period in order to maximize the profit?arrow_forwardNawras Tech assembles laptop computers from generic components. It purchases its colour monitors from a manufacturer in Taiwan with a lead time of one week. Daily demand for monitors is normally distributed with a mean of 30 monitors and a standard deviation of 8 monitors. The company has determined that the ordering cost is OMR 125 per order, the annual holding cost is OMR 25 per monitor, and the stockout cost is OMR 160 per lost sale. Currently, Nawras Tech accepts a 5% risk of stockout. Assume 350 days per year and 7 days in a week. a) Calculate the current fill rate. b) What is the annual cost of lost sales?arrow_forwardHOMEPRO is a furniture manufacturer which produces two sizes of wood blocks (type A and B) thatare used to make either a table or a chair. A table is made of a type A and a type B wood blocks,while a chair is made of a type A and two type B wood blocks (See Figure 1) A table makes RM 3 profit, and a chair makes RM 5 profit. If M number of type A and Nnumber of type B wood blocks are produced, how many tables and chairs should themanufacturer make to obtain the greatest profit?For example, let M = 12 and N = 12.By making 4 tables (4 type A and 4 type B) and 4 chairs (4 type A and 8 type B), themanufacturer gain profit as follows,Profit = (RM 3) × 4 + (RM 5) × 4 = RM 32.If the manufacturer makes 2 more tables and 1 less chair, the profit will be increased as follows,Profit = (RM 3) × 6 + (RM 5) × 3 = RM 33.Is this the greatest profit? Write a complete C++ program to help the manufacturer determine the greatest profit obtainfrom making tables and chairs with a given number of M type A and…arrow_forward

- A company uses four special tank trucks to deliver four different gasoline products to customers. Eachtank has five compartments with capacities: 500, 750, 1200, 1500, and 1750 gallons. The daily demands forthe four products are 10000, 15000, 12000, and 8000 gallons. Any quantities that cannot be delivered by thecompany’s four trucks must be subcontracted at the additional costs of 5, 12, 8, and 10 cents per gallon forproducts 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The goal is to develop the optimal daily loading schedule for the fourtrucks that will minimize the additional cost of subcontracting. Formulate this problem as an integer linearprogram, and solve it (not by hand).arrow_forwardA company's three factories produce 1,000 refrigerators per week. Plant A produces 350 refrigerators per week, while plants B and C produce 250 and 400 refrigerators per week, respectively. According to production records, 5% of the refrigerators manufactured at plant A will be defective, 3% of the refrigerators manufactured at plant B will be defective, and 7% of the refrigerators manufactured at plant C will be defective. Each refrigerator is transported to a central facility. If a defective refrigerator is discovered in the warehouse, what is the likelihood that it was manufactured at plant A?

The total cost of producing computer processing units H and software programs S is given by TC=aH+bS - CHS where a, b, and c are positive. Is this total cost function consistent with the presence of economies or diseconomies of scale? For the product-specific case for hardware, the firm experiences neither economies nor diseconomies of scale. For the product-specific case for software, the firm experiences of scale.arrow_forward
