Change is a process that impacts all organizations. As observed by management expert, Kurt Lewin, “group life is never without change, merely differences in the amount and type of change exist” (Burnes, 2004, p. 981). Most change initiatives, however, fails because of the tendency of people to resist change. People, according to management experts, fear change and so they tend to revert back to old ideas and practices even if the change is for the better. This tendency of the individuals to resist change affects the organization as a whole. Also, the longer the ...

Abstract

In an ecosystem, the existence of any species of animals or plants solely depends on the capability to adapt to its environment. This is true because, those species which are poorly adapted become extinct. For example, trees that could not adapt to harsh conditions of the desert were eliminated and those species that were well adapted were spared. This is basically what is called natural selection (Jeff et al 9). Similarly, those animal species that could not adapt to any given environmental conditions of an ecosystem were easily eliminated out of existence.

Discussion:

Using the measurements made in the procedure, calculate the quiescent current IE, and the internal emitter resistance re.
The quiescent current IE and internal emitter resistance re can be calculated using the DC analysis carried out in Step#1 and Step#2 of the procedure. The DC voltage measured across RE is used to measure the biasing current across the emitter of BJT. The voltage is measured to be 793mV. Since RE = 1KΩ, so:
IE=VERE=0.7931000=0.000793A=0.793mA.

Now, we can calculate the internal resistance of emitter using the formula provided in the procedure. So:

re=0.026IE=0.0260.000793=32.786Ω

Using the values obtained in the experiment; draw the small-signal ac equivalent circuit for the amplifier.

ABSTRACT
Two fluid properties, the Bernoulli principle and the Venturi effect, were examined and analyzed in this experiment. A venturi meter was used to measure the fluid flow rate, velocity, and pressure of water (the fluid being examined). The results showed that the fluid pressure decreases as the fluid traveled through a smaller cross sectional area. The minimum fluid pressure (in effect, maximum fluid velocity) was observed in the smallest cross sectional area at position D (diameter 16 mm). The decrease in fluid pressure was compensated by an increase in the fluid velocity. With these two measured phenomena, both ...

Dear Texas Bob,

The calculations made were based on formulas we deem fit. In obtaining the income, we used the cash flow method, which is simply the difference between the cash that flows in versus the cash that flows out of the business. That method would prove to be more accurate since in the retail food industry, cash is considered king.
Likewise, we discounted the values using the present value formula. We deem it important that the time value of money shall be considered to accurately reflect the amounts, not in a nominal sense, but in its real sense.
Lastly, we also ...
