Advance Math

1.) Corn is blanched in a 5 meter long steam tunnel blancher.The corn goes into the blancher 5 cm deep on a 50 cm wide belt. Therequired blanch time is 4.0 minutes. The bulk density of the rawcorn is 0.74 kg/m3 and gains 3% weight in blanching. What shouldthe belt speed be set at? What is the production rate of thefinished blanched corn product in kg per hour?

2.) Diced peppers with a bulk density of 0.33 kg/m3 areprocessed in the 5 meter long tunnel blancher on a 50 cm wide belt.The required blanch time is 4.5 minutes and the peppers lose 1.8%of their weight and shrink 3% in volume.
