The following additional information is available:
The company’s plant has a capacity of 100,400 direct labor-hours per year on a single-shift basis. The company’s present employees and equipment can produce all five products.
The direct labor rate of $10 per hour is expected to remain unchanged during the coming year.
Fixed manufacturing costs total $575,000 per year. Variable overhead costs are $2 per direct labor-hour.
All of the company’s nonmanufacturing costs are fixed.
The company’s finished goods inventory is negligible and can be ignored.
Required:
1. How many direct labor hours are used to manufacture one unit of each of the company’s five products?
2. How much variable overhead cost is incurred to manufacture one unit of each of the company’s five products?
3. What is the contribution margin per direct labor-hour for each of the company’s five products?
4. Assuming that direct labor-hours is the company’s constraining resource, what is the highest total contribution margin that the company can earn if it makes optimal use of its constrained resource?
5. Assuming that the company has made optimal use of its 100,400 direct labor-hours, what is the highest direct labor rate per hour that Walton Toy Company would be willing to pay for additional capacity (that is, for added direct labor time)?

1. A rectangular loop of wire (0.2 m wide and 0.3 m tall) carrying a current of 0.6 A is in the xy plane, with its right edge along the +y axis. A magnetic field (uniform, B = 1.2 T) exists along a direction that is 74° from the +z axis in the xz plane. What magnitude of torque will act on the loop of wire at that moment ? a) 0.42 Nm b)0.15 Nm c) 0.04 Nm d) 0.09 Nm
2. If the B-field in the previous problem was oriented at 50° from +x in the xz plane determine the magnitude and direction of the torque on a 150 turn loop of the same size as the coil in question#1. a) 4.2 Nm, along +y b) 2.8 Nm, along +y c) 1.1 Nm, along +z d) 0.5 Nm, along +z
3. Will the plane of the coil of wire in question #2 initially swing toward the +z or the -z axis? a) +z b) -z c) Neither +z nor -z
4. For the torque on a current carrying loop to be maximized, the angle between the normal to the plane of the loop and the B-field must be: a) zero. b)45°. c) 90° d) 180°

In Java, write a program that solves the following problem.
An arena can seat 12,000 people for an event. If the arena was full and you were to poll everyone for which day of the year (between 1 and 365, inclusive) they were born, determine which days had the most birthdays and which days had the fewest birthdays.
Write a program that will generate 12,000 random birthdays (integer numbers) between 1 and 365 and count how many people have that same birthday. Output a listing of the days that have the most birthdays and the days that have the fewest birthdays. You do not need to convert a number like 32 to an actual date (February 1st).
Do NOT change your class name from "Main". Your filename should be "Main.java".
Your code will have two classes:
The two classes can be part of the same file. A naive example structure is shown below.
public class Main{
public static void main(String args[]){
Arena a = new Arena();
a.printArena();
}
}
class Arena{
void printArena() {
System.out.println("I am arena");
}
}

The solute HCl(A) is diffusing through a 2-mm thick film of water (B) at 283 K. The concentration of HClat point 1 at one boundary of the film is 12 wt% HCl(density r1=1060 kg/m3), and at the other boundary at point 2 it is 6 wt% HCl(r2=1030.3 kg/m3.) Take diffusion coefficient of HClin H2O as 2.5e-9 m2/s, assume steady state and one boundary impermeable to water. Calculate the flux of HCl ( in mol/m^2*s)

The production of yogurts is carried out by adding a specific strain of bacteria to pasteurised milk. The bacteria consumes lactose in the milk to produce lactic acid. Assume the fermentation reaction can be simplified by the following reaction:
Lactose (A) + bacteria cells (C) à more bacteria cells (C) + lactic acid (R)
The data below shows the concentration of lactose from a 2 L mixed flow reactor at 40 oC.

First, create a class object named SequenceMap that has as private data members the following two:
string recognition_sequence_ ;
vector enzyme_acronyms_;
Other than the big-five (note that you can use the defaults for all of them), you have to add the following:
a) A constructor SequenceMap(const string &a_rec_seq, const string &an_enz_acro),that constructs a SequenceMap from two strings (note that now the vector enzyme_acronyms_ will contain just one element, the an_enz_acro).
b) bool operator<(const SequenceMap &rhs) const, that operates based on the regular string comparison between the recognition_sequence_ strings (this will be a one line function).
c) Overload the operator<< for SequenceMap.
d) void Merge(const SequenceMap &other_sequence). This function assumes that the object’s recognition_sequence_ and other_sequence.recognition_sequence_ are equal to each other. The function Merge() merges the other_sequence.enzyme_acronym_ with the object’s enzyme_acronym_. The other_sequence object will not be affected.
Please test it with your own test functions to make sure that it operates correctly.
Please also show the test functions that you utilize so I can also implement it.
thank you.
