You conceived the project whose objective was to build a car at or below 2,000 pounds to sell for no more than $8,000 new. The feasibility study for the Zinger was conducted under the supervision of Mr. I. M. Good, Vice President of Car Engineering. Student Motor’s Product Planning Committee--whose members included you, Mr. Good and Mrs. Lovely, Student’s Group Vice President of Car Engineering--approved the Zinger’s concept and made the decision to go forward with the project. During the course of the project, regular product review meetings were 2 held which were chaired by Mr. Good and attended by Mrs. Lovely. As the project approached actual production, the engineers responsible for the components of the project "signed off" to their...

...http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.html The motor in the Van de Graaff base plugs into an normal AC outlet. Once turned on, the motor scrapes then deposits charged particles onto the tan-colored rubber belt, which runs around a roller to the upper metal dome. Charged particles are deposited inside the dome but immediately move to the outer surface of the dome. Since these particles have the similar charges, they repel from one another as much as possible and evenly distribute themselves around the surface. Any object—finger, meter stick, elbow, hair, tongue, balloon, pith ball, etc.—that comes near enough to the dome will respond to these extra charged particles. Preliminary cautions: 1. The Van de Graaff can produce a spark that is simply irritating or quite dangerous. A spark several centimeters long can be the equivalent of 100 000 volts or more. The size of the sparks and their voltage will change with the speed of the motor, ambient room temperature and humidity (fewer sparks on humid days, nasty ones during dry winter days). The “good thing” is that this spark is of short time duration, so it may be painful but not health-threatening. The “bad thing” is that some students and teachers are very sensitive to shocks, either for emotional reasons or actual physical reasons (what about the teacher or student with a heart condition or pacemaker??) 2. So, before we even turn on the generator, I alert students to some health hazards (good time for discussion of difference...

...select or create, making sure that the curriculum is aligned with the program's philosophy(Gadzikowski, A., 2013). Ole Faithful program curriculum allows teachers to create their own lesson plans based on the theme for the week but it is reviewed by the administrator before it is applied in the classroom. Teachers play such an important role in helping making sure that the programs curriculum is implemented. If math is an integral part of a programs curriculum then the administrator will create opportunities for teachers to teach the appropriate skill with the appropriate materials. A teacher’s role includes giving input on what materials and activities that may be beneficial to teaching their students how to count. Among the school staff, teachers spend the most time with the students which are why teachers are a vital part of the decision-making process because they know what works and what needs improvement. In a well built curriculum teachers are allowed to make small changes as long as they are meeting the standards....

...Case exam 2013 2014: TATA Nano Tata Motors is India's largest automobile company, with consolidated revenues of USD 34.7 billion in 2012-13. Through subsidiaries and associate companies, Tata Motors has operations in the UK, South Korea, Thailand, Spain, South Africa and Indonesia. Among them is Jaguar Land Rover, the business comprising the two iconic British brands Jaguar and Land Rover, which Tata bought in 2008. In the same year Tata Motors launched the Tata Nano, the cheapest car in the world. When Tata Motors, the automaker from the $68 billion Tata Group of India, announced the launch of a people’s car in 2003, the idea had everything in it to make the Indian middle-class dream of owning their first car come true. Nano looked to be the perfect platform to reap the fortune at the Base-of-thePyramid (a term which denotes the poorest socio-economic group, or the 4 billion people on earth who live on less than US$2.50 per day), and more importantly, showcase to the world how frugal innovations in the developing world could create affordable cars with a price tag of $2,500. While India's population is more than one billion people, only around one million passenger cars were sold in the country in 2007. By contrast, more than seven million motorcycles and scooters were sold. Mr. Tata said the tiny car is aimed at keeping the families of India's growing middle class from having to travel with as many as four people on a scooter. "It will provide Indian families with...

...Injury Prevention: Motor Vehicle Injuries and Distracted Driving Among Teen Drivers Heather Stockman Waynesburg University Advanced Health Promotions Judith Adams August, 20, 2013 Injury Prevention: Motor Vehicle Injuries and Distracted Driving Among Teen Drivers Injuries are extremely widespread across society today and unintentional injuries remain among the top 15 killers for people of any age. The majority of people just accept these incidents as accidents, acts of fate, or a part of life although most of the events that result in injury, disability, or death are not only predictable but preventable. Beyond their immediate health consequences, injuries have a major impact on the well-being of society by contributing to premature death, disability, increased medical costs, and lost productivity. In addition, the effects of injury affect not only the injured person but also family members, friends, coworkers, and communities (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2013). The Injury and Violence Prevention objectives for 2020 include a wide range of issues that can improve the health of the nation if appropriately addressed. One such objective focuses on motor vehicle crashes that are due to distracted driving. This paper will focus on that initiative. INTRODUCTION Distraction is any activity that could divert a person’s attention away from the primary task of driving. There are three main types of distraction. The first is when the driver takes his eyes...
