An initial reaction rate is an instant rate at the beginning of the response. The graph has the y and x-axis, y stands for the concentration of moles per liter, and x stands for time in seconds. In this case, the chemical reaction is going against time; at the beginning of the response, the chemical concentration is very high, hence considered a positive reaction. As time goes by, the slope decreases, giving a negative curve; therefore, the reactant concentration reduces within an interval of time. Instantaneous rate is an instant rate in time with differential rate, the reactant against time. The instant calculation is by determining the negativity of the slope and the curve for the concentration of the moles per liter against time in seconds (Du et al., 2021 p 3154). Rate is equal to the negativity of the slope over time in seconds; this brings the instant rate and the difference between them, which gives the instantaneous rate. The reaction rate calculates the average over a time interval by dividing the moles’ concentration change per liter overtime per seconds’ period by time interval. Getting average is by observing the difference in the reactant’s concentration using the equation where the brackets mean the attention of the reactant. A minus sign applies when the rate is of a positive number from the previous equation. Nevertheless, the minus sign is not needed to calculate the used products’ average rates. Getting the average from B to G is by adding all the concentration intervals and dividing them from B to G to get the standard. To conclude, at the beginning of the reaction at point A and time 0, the concentration of moles per liter was high, while at point G, the engagement was low.

There has been an outcry over the banning of gays from openly serving in the United States’ military. The Obama administration in particular has contributed greatly to the repeal of the policy. This has however met a lot of resistance particularly from the reservists. Most American service members support the lifting of the ban. The ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy requires that those members of the military who are either openly gay or lesbian be discharged from their duties. Since its introduction, the policy has caused most servants to lose their jobs. The law has however been perceived as outdated and unconstitutional in the recent past. A Californian judge for instance ruled the law as unconstitutional and demanded that it be scrapped. Some countries have started to allow those members who are not straight to serve as military personnel. This includes all the NATO signatories with the exception of the United States and Turkey. Homosexuals are however still barred from openly serving in the military in, most of which are Islamic nations like Iran, Syria and Yemen. One of the reasons against the repeal of the policy was that if those members that are not straight were allowed to serve as officers in the military, then it would be a potential destruction. Activists played a significant role in the repeal. They included Lady Gaga, Gay rights groups and the democrats. The MTV age particularly contributed towards the repeal of the policy. Lady Gaga in particular has been a major lobbyist towards the repealing of the policy. In fact the gay rights advocates while making efforts to convince the senate for the repeal enlisted her. MTV video awards have for instance gone towards those works that were aimed at advocating against the policy, a good example being “Bad Romance.” Another example is “Alejandro” which won various prizes at the MTV Awards. Some of these videos have been acted by former service members who were affected by the ban. Most of them have joined defense networks that lobby for the repeal. Most of the MTV shows that perpetuate the repeal are usually claim to bring to light the unbearable burden that the policy impose on brave individuals who struggle to defend their nation and advocate for the scraping of the policy which they term as despicable. The same sex lobbying groups have had an enormous role in the repealing of the law. They have done this through various means with the social networks not being left behind. They have held rallies while trying to convince civilians to see sense in their quest for the same sex rights. To some extent they have managed to get most of the public to support them. The main fear though has been that the standards of the service in the military will greatly be compromised. Most of the same sex rights groups have been of the view that the military action abroad has to be stopped and that their needed to be significant budget cuts in the defense department. They have held the opinion that every American citizen has the rig
Education is an important part of human life. People do their best to receive a good education. They go to school, read books solve tasks. But it is only life that can give people moral education. People usually learn some moral lessons from their own experience or from mistakes of their own or others. To find something new and not learned people go on some adventures and come back with some amount of knowledge and received lessons. Joseph Campbell in the introduction to “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” writes: A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man (2008). One literary figure that can be easily compared to Campbell’s hero is Huckleberry Finn. Campbell’s “A Hero With A Thousand Faces” describes a character who is constantly challenged with moral dilemmas and hard choices on his adventure which ultimately teach him the lessons to become a hero, whether he becomes a well-known figure, such as a guardian of society, or simply a savior to his individual needs. Campbell created three stages of traveling or adventures of a hero. They are departure, initiation and return. Departure is the part of adventure when the hero starts his journey. Initiation is a stage where a hero is given some tasks, where he/she has to come through some tests and to make conclusions out of them. And the third stage is the return. This is the end of a journey and a hero returns to routine life with his own conclusions and experience. The hero gets unvalued lesson from his/her journey which changes his/her common life. (Campbell 2008) Throughout “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” , the protagonist deals with issues such as exclusion, discrimination, racism, and most importantly making his own difficult yet rational decisions, even if those decisions go against everything he has learned before. “In each of his choices, Huck experiences a conflict between his feelings (which move him to act on Jim’s behalf) and his conscience (which demands that he behave according to the values of his society)” (Kastely 1986). Huck is a product of a very abusive and remiss southern society, which involved a drunkard
Introduction Business economics can be defined as a branch of economics that deals with the application of various microeconomic models in the analysis of a business process. Business economics analysis will help a business to understand and adopt various strategic measures that will enable a business to have a competitive advantage (Carson, Hecht & Thomas 2002). Business economics analysis is a daunting task fraught with disappointments. A poorly undertaken business economics analysis might lead to the collapse of a company. On the other hand, if the business economics analysis is professionally done, the company is likely to prosper and make a lot of profits. Hence, it is important that business undertakings should perform a well-planned and organized business economics analysis (Mcconnell, Brue & Flynn 2009). Micro economics can be defined as the process of studying a business decision regarding the allocation of scarce and limited resources within an organization. Micro economics is concerned with the effect that various business behaviors have on demand and supply of a company’s products. There are various micro economics issues facing organizations. Such issues include issues related to growth, unemployment, and inflation. Micro economics is also concerned with the effects of national policies on an organization. Such changes in policies may include changes in taxation policies (Bardhan & Udry 1999). This research paper is going to evaluate the micro economics issues facing small and medium-sized businesses in the United Kingdom using the case study of Telecoms world plc. The research paper will also examine the various strategies that the company can adopt in order to overcome the micro economic challenges. Background information Small business enterprises are the backbone of a country’s economy. They are the major contributors to a country’s economy in terms of offering employment and are also sources of government revenues. Small and medium size enterprises have various advantages which include but not limited to the following: they provide a source of revenue to the government, they provide employment to citizens, and also they utilize the small resources available in a country. Therefore, it is of vital importance that small and medium enterprises be protected from various threats that face them (Burkett 2006). There are various micro economics issues that SME’S face. These challenges include but not limited to the following: changes in taxation policies, inflation, growth and the effect of unemployment. Telecoms World Plc. Telecoms world plc is an enterprise in the United Kingdom that deals with the telecommunications products and services. The company deals with cost effective telecoms solutions ranging from cloud hosting services to mobile phone services. The business deals with call routing, fax and email solutions, and Beskope solutions. The Beskope solutions include the services like call queuing, voice recognition and data capture. The company also deals with interactive voice response for its inbound call services. The business environment the business is operating in The telecommunications industry is cha
The dropping of an Atomic bomb in Nagasaki followed the prior bombing of Hiroshima military base. On August 9, 1945, the third atomic bomb to be ever made, ‘Fat Man,’ was detonated 1,650 feet above the Japanese city of Nagasaki unleashing untold agony to the city’s residents. Following the Nagasaki bombing, Japan surrendered unconditionally, thereby bringing the Second World War to an end. The plan of the United States’ government was to coerce Japan into surrender through its previous atomic bombing of Hiroshima. However, a contingency plan, the US government planned a second bombing in the Japanese city of Kokura on the 11th of August. Expectations of bad weather and the smoke hovering above Kokura (as a result of other bombings nearby) prompted the change of bombing venue to Nagasaki. The detonation of the atomic bomb at Nagasaki produced a destructive force that was equal to twenty-two thousand tons of TNT. There are several historical developments that led to the Nagasaki bombing. President Truman, his advisors, and the Allies had given Japan the ultimatum to surrender unconditionally or face ‘prompt and utter destruction’ (Stimson 12). On the other hand, Japan was ready to negotiate for peace with the Allies, but the country’s top administration was uncomfortable with the call for ‘unconditional surrender.’ This paper explores the political background of the Nagasaki atomic bombing concerning major political players such as the United States and Russia. The decision to deploy an atomic bomb over Nagasaki was preceded by the success of the Manhattan Project. President Harry Truman had just taken over leadership from Franklin Roosevelt, and he was faced by the complexities that surrounded the Japan-US standoff (Schelling 102). In his view, Truman could end the war, but the cost of this decision was too high. Both of the parties that were involved in the conflict were exhausted after being involved in the active war for over four years. The Japanese were reeling from the constant fire bombings from American forces. However, Japan still had an army of over two million soldiers who were guarding the country’s strongholds against further American invasion. Meanwhile, the American forces had already occupied the Japanese cities of Okinawa and Iwo Jima. From these two cities, the American forces continued to firebomb Japanese towns. There was no end in sight when it came to the conflict between Japan and the US. Consequently, President Truman had a difficult decision to make. The Hiroshima atomic bomb was detonated on the sixth of August 1945 and “two days later, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan” (Linethal and Engelhardt 37). Before the atomic bombing took place, the Japanese envoy to Russia had been urging his government to surrender. However, the Japanese administration responded to the envoy’s call by requesting him to arrange a meeting between Russia and Japan. Furthermore, both Winston Churchill and Harry Truman were hoping that Japan would surrender before Russia came into the conflict. Accord
The history of computer technology goes back to the late 1930s – early 1940s, when the first computer was invented. American military used computer technology for different purposes, including strategic decisions and control functions. The technological change in information technology creates the possibility of change in the conduct of military operations. Computer technology constitutes a potentially powerful source in military affairs. The problems that military organizations have experienced in formulating appropriate responses to new technologies have traditionally been viewed as the result of a conservative and stability-seeking institution’s attempts to accommodate a phenomenon whose developmental trajectories are inherently difficult to predict. The age of experimental computers lasted into the fifties when all of the basic ideas and technological inventions became available to create the first generation of commercial general-purpose computers 1 . During the 1940s-1960, the American military was the only ‘driver’ of computer development and innovations. “Though most of the research work took place at universities and in commercial firms, military research organizations such as the Office of Naval Research, the Communications Security Group (known by its code name OP-20-G), and the Air Comptroller’s Office paid for it. Military users became the proving ground for initial concepts and prototype machines” 2 . By the mid- 1930s, various developments had occurred, which made possible the realization of Babbage’s ideas (concerning computer technologies) without having to solve the mechanical problems which had defeated him. 3 . These were, in particular, the punch-card system just described and a variety of automatic selecting devices developed primarily for electrical communication systems. These possibilities were realized by Howard Aiken, of Harvard University, in 1937 and he invited International Business Machines to collaborate with him in their development. The result, in August 1944, was the IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator (ASCC). This is commonly regarded as the prototype of modern electronic computers, and it is certainly true that it initiated an entirely new line of calculators and information processors. Nevertheless, it was not st
It is not an easy task to find a place in order to observe people and try to understand their interests, needs, and plans. In Wilkes-Barre, there is a public square where people are occupied with a variety of thoughts and activities, and each period of time has its own characteristics and peculiarities. Even the days of the week may influence people’s mood and attitude to the reality. Observing one day from lives of the senior citizens in down town (it is Friday), it is possible to understand how unique and predictable the life of an ordinary person may be. A number of international students leave their hotel rooms and go to the college to meet their purposes and get the required education. Though not all of them are eager to start studying right now, they remember about their duties and their roles in society, this is why it seems to be reasonable to buy a cup of coffee and drink it while walking to save time. In fact, there are many activities made by people which may be used to understand better social problems and challenges as well as human needs and interests. For example, it is clear that people are in need of more time in their lives. They have to hurry up days and nights to be in time at work or home. They find it normal to drink juice or coffee walking or have a quick lunch at the restaurants. Still, the importance of weather is huge indeed. It influences human mood and activities considerably. For example, when the weather is fine, people like to walk through the squire and enjoy the surroundings. They are eager to communicate and discuss the latest news. In spite of the fact that people have some obligations (to work, to study, to be a good husband/wife), all of them are ready to entertain and be an appropriate part of society. Social norms are usually considered by people as it is observed that even at the nighttime, police officers supervise other people and control the conditions at bars and at the streets. Each restaurant on the square aims at defining people into separate social groups: for example, elderly people are the visitors of the Irish bar, students find it interesting to go to the Hardware bar, and people from the high class enjoy the services offered in the Rodalonds bar. The vast majority of people are happy, and their happiness
Discussion Most markets do not show sustainable development and demand; therefore, forecasting is a major factor in the successful operation of a company. Ineffective prognostication can lead to excessive or unnecessary use of resources and subsequent waste. The more volatile the demand is, the more important it is for a company to make an accurate forecast. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the way Seven Cycles utilizes its forecasting strategy and the effect it has on its organizational decisions. Just-in-Time Method Seven Cycles is a US bicycle brand, which produces and sells craft-made vehicles. This company actively utilizes forecasting methods to ensure it delivers a valuable product for the market (Seven, 2015). In particular, the firm has employed a Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing system. The core of this approach lies in the fact that the producer receives the required inventory when they need it and when the client has placed an order. That is, “a rider ordering a bike actually triggers the process of the bike’s component parts beginning to move toward the bike builder’s workspace” (Seven, 2015, para. 2). Seven Cycles benefits from using this type of forecasting in multiple ways. In particular, they do not need to keep excess inventory and spend money on storing it. The organization can streamline its processes and focus on examining sales patterns. As a rule, sales can have peaks and valleys, and the JIT method is helpful in predicting future demand (Javadian Kootanaee, Babu, & Talari, 2013). The company has to forecast not only local but also regional demand, and the chosen strategy ensures they can do it for a defined customer group. Conclusion Thus, it can be concluded that the JIT method utilized by Seven Cycles is a wise approach to demand forecasting. It ensures the management of material flows in production is based on the actual need that is created by the current demand for finished products. Therefore, the company offers high-quality custom bicycles without excess waste and inventory by correctly forecasting the demand for their goods.
