Ores from two different faces are blended and supplied with Fe grade not less than 60 %. Based on the demand, the combined production is limited to a maximum of 2500 tonne/day. If the selling price of blended iron ores is INR 4500 /tonne, the optimal production from two faces in tonne/day, for maximizing the profit, respectively are

A mine worker weighing (W) 600 N lifts an object of 100 N as shown. The 50% body weight is applied downward through point A and a force FE is produced parallel to x axis by the contraction of erector spinae muscle during lifting. The lumber disc, L (shown by red box) acts as a smooth hinge and keeps the upper body in static equilibrium. Ignore all other forces in the body. The magnitude of the resultant of the reaction forces, in N at the lumber disc, is____.(round off up to 2 decimals)
