The local driver\'s license center processes applications for driver\'s license

Question

The local driver's license center processes applications for driver's license renewals through the following three steps. First, the customer registers with one of 3 receptionist(s), who updates the customer's information in the database. This first step takes 9 minutes per customer. Then the customer visits one of 4 cashiers to pay the associated fees for the license renewal. This takes 4 minutes per customer because several forms must be printed from the computer and signed by the customer. Finally, the customer visits one of 5 license processing stations where the customer's picture is taken and the license is printed. This final step takes 6 minutes per customer. a. Assuming unlimited demand, what is the flow rate of the process in customers per hour? 400 per hour b. Assuming unlimited demand, what would the new flow rate be if the center added one server to the bottleneck resource? 800 per hour

Explanation / Answer

Given,

Q = 50 uC ; U = 1.5 mJ ; d = 25 cm

we have to consider the potential at A is zero.

we know that, U = q V => V = U/q

The potential at B should be

Vb = Ub/q = 1.5 mJ/1.5 micro C = 1.5 x 10^-3/50 x 10^-6 = 30 V

Hence, Vb - Va = 30 V.
