Department F assembles widgets by hand. A new product line commenced last week. The first widget produced took five hours. The labour hours were fully used-making 2,000 widgets in the first week of production. No additional labour hours are available in the short term. Note: the department bases its learning curve calculations on the following model: y=ax02 How many units were produced in the second week? O 696 O 2,000 O 2,920 O 4,920
