Consider a linear programming problem with two variables and two constraints. The objective function is: Maximize $${x_1} + {x_2}.$$ The corner points of the feasible region are $$(0,0), (0,2), (2,0)$$ and $$(4/3, 4/3).$$

Let $${y_1}$$ and $${y_2}$$ be the decision variables of the dual and $${v_1}$$ and $${v_2}$$ be the slack variables of the dual of the given linear programming problem. The optimum dual variables are

A company has two factories $${S_1},$$ $${S_2}$$ and two warehouses $${D_1},$$ $${D_2}$$ . the supplies from $${S_1}$$ and $${S_2}$$ are $$50$$ and $$40$$ units respectively. Warehouse $${D_1},$$ requires a minimum of $$20$$ units and a maximum of $$40$$ units. Warehouse $${D_2},$$ requires a minimum of $$20$$ units and, over and above, it can take as much as can be supplied. A balanced transport-ation problem is to be formulated for the above situation. The number of supply points, the number of demand points, and the total supply (or total demand) in the balanced transportation problem respectively are

Which one of the following is criterion in the design of hydrodynamic journal bearings?

A band brake consists of a lever attached to one end of the band. The other end of the band is fixed to the ground. The wheel has a radius of $$200$$ $$mm$$ and the wrap angle of the band is $${270^ \circ }$$. The braking force applied to the lever is limited to $$100N,$$ and the coefficient of friction between the band and the wheel is $$0.5.$$ No other information is given.

The maximum tension that can be generated in the band during braking is
