Physics

A manufacturer produces either edible honeycomb orhoney from the raw honeycomb harvested from the beehives. Toproduce edible honeycomb, raw honeycomb is fed to a cutter thatproduces 30 edible combs per raw comb, and the manufacturer wantsto produce 1200 edible combs an hour. The raw honeycomb that is tobe made into honey is put through an uncapping and filter machinethat separates both the wax and the honey from the frame. The honeyis then split, part going to storage and part going to a heaterwhich warms the honey before packaging.

If each raw honeycomb has a 1 pound frame, holds 7pounds of honey, and has an average weight of 10 pounds, how muchwax is produced (lbs/hr) when 300 raw honeycombs/hour is fed to thesystem?
How much extra honey (lbs/hr) must be stored to keep production at1500 lbs/hr for the warm honey?
If honey enters the heater at 25°C and leaves at 55°C, how muchenergy does the heater use (kW)?

Given information: Cp of honey:
1.9 + 28.8×10^-4 T + 6.4×10^-5 T^2 + 6.9×10^-8 T^3

Units of specific heat are Celsius.
