Each shuttle car on an average carries 80% of its rated capacity and makes 7 round trips in an hour. The belt conveyor has a capacity such that the effective material cross section area is of 0.09 m2 and runs at a speed 1.1 m/s. The broken coal has a bulk density of 1.2 tonne/m3. The ratio between the production and the capacity of the belt conveyor, in percent is
