Question $2$

Question $2$a

Suppose a certain warehouse sets aside $150$m$2$ for the receiving area. Unloading time takes $25$ minutes per load. The checking process takes $35$ minutes per load. The pallet size is $1\mathrm{.}2$m x $1$m$.$ Each vehicle carries a load of $25$ pallets. The warehouse operates a $6-$hour shift. Examine the number of vehicles the warehouse can receive each day for the given receiving area. Support your answer with necessary computations.

If the pallets are double stacked, can the warehouse receive more vehicles or fewer vehicles? State your reasons.

Question $2$b

The warehouse is considering to increase the receiving area to $210$m$2$ to take into account the working and travel space around the pallets. Based on this additional area and the vehicle numbers estimated in part $($a$),$ what is the extra space computed for each pallet?
