FRUIT COMPUTER COMPANY
Fruit Computer Company manufactures memory chips in batches of ten chips. From past experience, Fruit knows that 80% of all batches contain 10% (1 out of 10) defective chips, and 20% of all batches contain 50% (5 out of 10) defective chips. If a good (that is, 10% defective) batch of chips is sent to the next stage of production,
QUESTIONS

- A small turbine delivers 150kW and is supplied with steam at 700°C, 2MPa. The exhaust passes through a heat exchanger where the pressure is 10kPa and exits as saturated liquid. The turbine is reversible and adiabatic. Find the specific turbine work and the heat transfer in the heat J exchanger. (Ans. 1397k-g, -250kW) 97k g karrow_forwardA particular production process is claimed to be 90% effective, that is the material produced can be shaped as desired in a later processing stage with a probability of 0.9. What is the probability that exactly 15 boxes will be produced in order to obtain the third defective box?arrow_forwardThe following is an excerpt from a conversation between two sales clerks, Tracy Rawlin and Jeff Weimer. Both Tracy and Jeff are employed by Magnum Electronics, a locally owned and operated electronics retail store. Suggest appropriate control procedures that would have prevented or detected the theft of cash.arrow_forward
- Recall Assignment #1 and all the injuries that Old Cadger Nursing Home experienced in 2017. Also recall we decided there were 12 recordables, 4 days away cases, and 7 days away/restricted-transfer cases. (USE THESE NUMBERS.) Take these numbers plus the following information and calculate the following OSHA recordkeeping-related stats for Old Cadger Nursing Home’s injuries in 2017: The DART rate is calculated using the following formula: (Number of OSHA Recordable injuries and illnesses that resulted in Days Away; Restricted; Transferred X 200,000) / Employee hours worked = Days Away Restricted Transferred (DART) Rate Do I combine 7 and 4 or do i only use 7?arrow_forward1m radius disk is moving on the inclined surface under no slip condition. the center of the disk has 3m/s velocity and according to the figure, bar BC is pinned to the disk at point C and point B always stays on the ground. 1) find angular velocity of BC. 2) find angular acceleration of BCarrow_forwardNo Pain Corp Omar Amman, the CEO of No Pain Corp (NPC), is under stress. They produce transcutaneus electrical nerve simulation units (TENS) for pain control. Amman faces a new opportunity and is not sure how to go about it. Recently, the the Department of Health of Canada has approved low current TENS devices to be sold directly to consumers without a doctor’s note. This will come into effect in three months. In the past, one needed a doctor’s note and could rent the device from some companies. These TENS machines, as they are called in Canada, are popular, since the older population has found them to be effective in pain control with almost no side effects. Amman can sell the device via drug-stores and pharmacies as well as on Amazon. But, Amman is not sure. Amman used to work as a supply chain manager for a power-tool company. Back then, it was a huge logistical “pain,” no pun intended, to work with large retailers and to attend to their fulfilment needs. Those retailers used to…arrow_forward
- Two other processes of heat transfer are conduction and radiation. Describe three differences between conduction and radiation. 1.-------- 2.--------- 3.------arrow_forwardWhat is an example of a learning objective for a lesson on Integrating Writing in Math in a first-grade classroom? The learning objective should include the following required components: behavior, condition, and measurable criterion that aligns with both of the below standards. Math Standard Solve real-world problems involving addition and subtraction within 20 in situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing with unknowns in all parts of the addition or subtraction problem (e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem). Writing Standard Produce (when writing or speaking) a topic sentence or main idea, provide some facts or details about the topic, and provide a concluding statement.arrow_forwardIn a manufacturing process, 10% of the produced units are defective. If the process produces 1000 units per hour, how many defective units are produced in a day (8 hours of operation)?arrow_forward
- Large-scale integrated (LSI) circuit chips are made in one department of an electronics firm. These chips are incorporated into analog devices that are then encased in epoxy. The yield is not particularly good for LSI manufacture, so the AQL specified by that department is 0.15 while the LTPD acceptable by the assembly department is 0.40. Assume the company is willing to accept a consumer's risk of 10 percent and a producer's risk of 5 percent. Find the sample size. Use Exhibit 10.16. Note: if the exact value of the computed LTPD ÷ AOQ ratio does not appear in Exhibit 10.16, use the next higher ratio. Note: Round up your answer to the next whole number. How would you tell someone to do the test?arrow_forwardWhich component is commonly used for bias stabilization in a transistor circuit? A) Resistor B) Capacito C) Inductor - D) Transformer.arrow_forwardConsider an assembly line with 50 steps that are carried out sequentially. Each of the 50 steps has a defect probability of 1%. The final product produced on the assembly line is defective if any one of the 50 steps made a defect. At the end of the assembly line there are two operators independently inspecting the product. Each of them is recognizing a defective product with a 90% probability. Assuming that the product is not defective, it is moved to the shipping department. Otherwise, the product is scrapped. Probability that a defective product is produced (independent of the defect being found or not) (in decimal form): What is the probability that a defective product is moved to the shipping department?arrow_forward
