Question:
Upon completion of the CNC drilling operations, the aluminum flanges and brass orifice plates are placed in a plastic tote, which weighs a maximum of five pounds, for transportation to the assembly areas. Operators are told to place exactly six aluminum flanges and twelve brass orifice plates in each tote. The production supervisor is concerned that the total weight being added to the tote is too much for the workers to safely handle. She asks you how much the loaded tote weighs.
Using only the information provided to determine the weight of
a) six aluminum flanges in-lb force and in newtons;
b) twelve brass orifice plates in-lb force and newtons;
c) the combined weight of the aluminum plates, brass orifices,
and the plastic tote in-lb force and newtons. The density of aluminum: is 2.70g/cm^3; the density of brass: is 8.50g/cm^3
