Further friction and wear properties were determined with the help of pin on disc apparatus.The L9 orthogonal arraywas selected for experimentation to understand effects of process parameters like weight percentage of hybrid reinforcements, load, sliding distance and temperature. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) technique was used to find out optimumslidingconditionforreducedwearlossandCoefficient of friction (COF)for HAMCs.It was observed that the temperature and load predominantly affects…

Policing in America Part 1 My article titled “Did De-Policing Cause the Increase in Homicide Rates” by Rosenfeld and Wallman (2019) reviews whether de-policing has augmented homicide cases in America. In recent years, the United States has witnessed increased cases of killing of unarmed civilians by the police. Mainly, a significant number of policymakers have attributed this social problem to de-policing in that police departments are no longer using proactive measures such as arrest to avoid publicity and legal liabilities. The findings of this article fail to link fewer arrests with increased homicide rates. However, proactive policing practices such as targeted patrol, as well as the trust and confidence of communities, have on the police are effective in mitigating homicide rates. From this article, therefore, the question is: What should the police do to acquire confidence and trust from the public? Travis B’s article titled “Is Policing Safer Today” by Nicholas Richardson, Kelle Barrick, and Kevin Strom reviews the status of policing today. In the end, Travis B asks whether the government should invest more money into preserving officers’ mental…

The Ethical Landscape in the Medical Research Profession. The Ethical Landscape the Medical Research Profession The medical research profession serves the most critical part of the economy. Human health is one of the essential pillars of any administration. However, some of the interests that the profession serve may overlap and create a steady state of conflict. For starters, one of the ethical standards in this profession is to produce quality medicine for a particular medical condition or illness. The rule is set such that the drug they research on, and products meet all the requisite criteria for human use. In the medical research profession, one of the leading ethical dilemmas is gift-giving. Gift giving is the practice where pharmaceutical companies or researchers want to market their products through doctors or other health care providers. They target people with drug prescribing authority, and the sales representative of a pharmaceutical company offer certain rewards to these practitioners. In some cases, the prescribing nurses and doctors are awarded trips and holidays. The prescribing of the drug is done without offering an alternative to…

Midas’s primary strategy Midas has the plan of adding a new service to the operations of the company. Therefore, it will be crucial for Midas to focus on how this change will affect its operations. Such changes could have significant financial impacts to the organization. It could result in losses or even affect the reputation of the company. It is quite challenging to predict the future of this organization, but if the management can formulate a strategy, it can be prepared for any unforeseen obstacles. In the automotive repair industry, Midas’s primary strategy is to offer an average number of services at a relatively low cost. Also, its regional product promotion is critical in developing a comprehensive geographical market. It is not a comprehensive repair shop. However, it focuses on a few services like brakes, shock absorbers, and muffler repair (Vonderembse and White, 2013). This small scale operation is a worrying factor Midas because the management is afraid that adding tune-ups might affect daily operations. I think teaming up with other specialized shops within the market would be sustainable. I…

Regression and Prediction Regression analysis is among the most common statistical tools used in investigating relationships among variables and prediction. This paper considers Adam’s Pizza outlet, which operates in six cities, namely: Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, OKC, Tulsa, and Norman. The study conducted a multiple regression analysis using the data collected on quarterly intervals between the years 2013 and 2014. The study is aimed at determining the impacts of prices and advertising on the sales of pizza. It also seeks to assess the effect of other factors such as income and population on demand for pizza. This report, therefore, discusses the economic and statistical significance of the variables, interpretation of coefficient of determination, estimation of the 2015 first-quarter sales, and confidence intervals. The Statistical Significance of the Variables The multiple regression model uses six independent variables: price, Advertising expenditure, price of the competitors, income, population, and the trend. The price is the cost at which Adam’s Pizza sells in their outlets. The price affects the demand of the pizza, because a high price may scare away customers while low price…

Headship theories Headship theories are the established thoughts that explain why and how particular people become managers. They focus on the attributes, along with the behaviors that people can acquire to enhance their leadership capabilities. The formal leadership theories entail the great man theory, contingency theory, behavioral theory, along with the situational theory. The great man theory suggests that leaders have the inherent traits and abilities for leading, and some of the characteristics include communication skills, confidence, and social skills. Moreover, the theory defines leaders as mythic and ordained to get into leadership when the right situation arises. Likewise, the contingency theory emphasizes the distinct variables in a specific environment that decide on the best leadership style that suits the situation. The situational leadership theory, on the other side, implies that leadership relies on the situation at hand. It states that leaders should usually correspond their headship to the various situation by evaluating specific variables like the nature of the disciples and the type of tasks performed by the followers. The behavioral leadership theory focuses on the behaviors and actions…

                  REAL OPTION APPROACH Student’s name Institution affiliation Course Date                     Question 1. Throughout this case, the study of the NPV is inadequate since it cannot place a dollar value management stability on the side of volatility. For Country Line Markets, the choice to enlarge the shop to a megastore is dependent on several factors and is just an alternative. The threat of Walmart opening stores is significant, and, with changing trends dynamics, the decision to build a shop immediately or to wait for the right moment can never be taken into account in the NPV evaluation and risk evaluation. Question 2. The advantages to being gained by exploring the real options perspective are; a) the choice of delaying the launch, effectively a time choice, b) the extension of the shop for more customer satisfaction. Question 3. Volatility for the present value of the free cash flows in the future using the Arzac approach. with no Walmart advertisers with Walmart the 1st year…

Sampling strategy Target population As mentioned in the PICOT analysis, the research focuses on nurses as the Virginia Medical Centre who work long hours at the hospital and how that affects the quality of care that they give to patients. The research thereby targets two populations. Firstly, it aims nurses who work twelve hours a day and then exchange their shifts who have to be compared with nurses who work eight hours a day. The target populations are the two groups of nurses and their patients. The patients will only be observed for purposes of determining the quality of care that they have been given. Sampling approach sampling approach that focuses on the nurse, a non-probability sampling approach has to be used. Since the study is focusing on a particular quality on the nurses within Virginia Medical Centre, it is only fair to apply quota sampling (Faber, & Fonseca, 2014). Quota sampling helps in tailoring the two characteristics that we are looking for to the population interest. However, the population of patients who will analyze the type of care the…
