A self-propelled combine with a four-row 101.6 cm (40 in) corn head has a list price of $40,000. The diesel engine has a maximum power of 91 kW (122 hp). The combine is driven at 6.4 km/hr (4 mi/hr) and at a field efficiency of 65% for an average of 150 hours per year. What is the average cost per hour and per hectare (acre)? The combine is expected to be owned for 10 years. Diesel fuel costs 13¢/L (49¢/gal).

The time for turning on the headland at the ends of the 500-m field is 15 seconds.Find the field efficiency:a. 78% b. 83%c. 87% d. 90%
5) Millard Manufacturing must replace one of its pumps. The net present cost of Alternative A is $8,956, Alternative B is $5,531, and Alternative C is $4,078. Alternative A is expected to last for 12 years; Alternative B has a life expectancy of 7 years; and Alternative C is expected to last for 5 years. If Millard's MARR is 5%, which alternative (if any) should be chosen using EUAC (Equivalent Uniform Annual Cost)?
A 6-m self-propelled combine makes an average stop of 5 minutes everytime its 3-ton grain tank is to be unloaded. The yield of the 30-ha field is 60 tons. The operating speed is 6 kph. The time for turning on the headland at the ends of the 500-m field is 20 seconds. Find: a. theoretical field capacity b. actual field capacity c. Field efficiency
The storage tank of your plant has a 1.20 million gallon capacity and the demand is 0.40 million gallons per day (MGD). If the pump was broken, how many more days could your plant supply the water?
سؤال ثانی A rectangular storage tank with an open top is to have volume (20 m'). The length of the base is twice the width, see the figure. The Material of the base costs (20 $) per square meter. The material of the sides costs (10 $) per square meter. Use Lagrange multiplier method to find the optimum dimensions of a tank that give the minimum cost. 2w Ans./ 1x 3.914 w x 1.957 h - 2.61
Six years ago, an 80-kW diesel-electric set cost $145,000. The cost index for this class of equipment six years ago was 187 and is now 194. The plant engineering staff was considering a 120-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant that would have cost $200,145. Based on the information above the plant engineering staff is considering a 100-kW unit of the same general design to power a small isolated plant. Assume we want to add a pre-compressor, which (when isolated and estimated separately) currently costs $10,000. Determine the total cost of the 100-kW unit.

THIS IS NOT GRADED QUESTION, PLZ SOLVE IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ENVIRONMENTALENGINEERING-2 Reg.NO: 5395 • In slide 2 and 3 increase the no of loads (Column 2) by 5. • Calculate the total load at the end of the day. • Calculate the capita (per home). The no of residences in the locality (from which the whole waste generates) is the last digit of your REGISTRATION NUMBER. For example, your registration number is19PWCIV 5395… the number of residences will be 5395
