Go online and search for information about companies that have been harmed or bankrupted by a disaster. Choose one such company

and create a brief case study about it. Successful narratives will focus on the manner in which the organization was impacted, including financial losses, losses of sales, or the need for layoffs.

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

In recent times and in the past, so many companies have been dealt with or bankrupted by disaster.

This disasters are in the form of floods, earthquake and tsunami. This has led to many companies across world to have faced problem. As Japan is particularly vulnerable to natural disaster because of its climate and topography let me take example of japan .The tsunami that struck Japan in March this year which has lead to a debt of worth nearly $8 billion due to failed businesses. A total of 341 firms in japan with a combined 6,376 employees has got affected by this disaster.

One of company that hit hard by these disaster is Toyota. Toyota is a Japanese multinational automotive manufacturer headquartered in Toyota, Aichi, Japan. Actually due to flood in thailand toyota has faced a big loss. As flood hit thailand the parts of vehicle which is produced in thailand has stopped . It leads to interruption in the supply chain of some Thailand made components.

This lead to suspension of production as thai made component was unavailable.It has been reported until the situation of thailand will be good toyota plants in Indiana, Kentucky and Ontario, Canada, will be shut down . And production rate at plant in North America will get slow down .This flood leads to a loss of 37500 vehicles .Due to this reason toyota was forced to open its plants in Southeast asian country just to enhance the production rate.Sales of vehicle has also got reduced in thailand . Hence toyota faced a total loss of 1.6 billion dollar.

In Nigeria, due to the insurgency of the Boko Haram, many companies have entirely stopped operations in some regions, this harsh realities leads to massive loss of revenue for such companies.

monitta

Answer:

M_c = 61.6 Nm

Explanation:

Given:

F_a = 2.5 KN

Find:

Determine the moment of this force about C for the two casesshown.

Solution:

- Draw horizontal and vertical vectors at point A.

- Take moments about point C as follows:

                         M_c = F_a*( 42 / 150 ) *88

                         M_c = 2.5*( 42 / 150 ) *88

                         M_c = 61.6 Nm

- We see that the vertical component of force at point A passes through C.

Hence, its moment about C is zero.

An induced-draft cooling tower cools 90,000 gallons per minute of water from 84 to 68oF. Air at 14.61 psia, 70oF dry bulb and 60
belka [17]

Answer:

a. V = 109.64 × 10⁵ ft/min

b. Mw = 654519.54 kg/hr

Explanation:

Given Parameters

mass flow rate of water, Mw = 90000g/min = 6607.33 kg/s

inlet temperature of water, T1 = 84 F = 28.89 C

outlet temperature of water, T2 = 68 F = 20 C

specific heat capacity of water, c = 4.18kJ/kgK

rate of heat remover from water, Qw is given by

Qw = 6607.33[28.89 - 20] * 4.18

Qw = 245529.545kw

For air, inlet condition

DBT = 70 F              hi = 43.43 kJ/kg

WBT = 60 F             wi = 0.00874 kJ/kg

                                u1 = 0.8445 m/kg

oulet condition,

DBT = 70 F        RH = 100.1

h1 = 83.504kJ/kg

Wo = 0.222kJ/kg

Superheated water vapor at a pressure of 20 MPa, a temperature of 500oC, and a flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a satura
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

1.96 kg/s.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which we are going to use in solving this question effectively and these data are;

=> Superheated water vapor at a pressure = 20 MPa,

=> temperature = 500°C,

=> " flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a saturated vapor state at 10 MPa in an open feedwater heater."

=> "mixing this stream with a stream of liquid water at 20°C and 10 MPa."

K1 = 3241.18, k2 = 93.28 and 2725.47.

Therefore, m1 + m2= m3.

10(3241.18) + m2 (93.28) = (10 + m3) 2725.47.

=> 1.96 kg/s.

Write a program that removes all spaces from the given input. You may assume that the input string will not exceed 50 characters
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Program that removes all spaces from the given input

Explanation:

// An efficient Java program to remove all spaces  

// from a string  

class GFG  

{  

 

// Function to remove all spaces  

// from a given string  

static int removeSpaces(char []str)  

{  

   // To keep track of non-space character count  

   int count = 0;  

 

   // Traverse the given string.  

   // If current character  

   // is not space, then place  

   // it at index 'count++'  

   for (int i = 0; i<str.length; i++)  

       if (str[i] != ' ')  

           str[count++] = str[i]; // here count is  

                                   // incremented  

         

   return count;  

}  

 

// Driver code  

public static void main(String[] args)  

{  

   char str[] = "g eeks for ge eeks ".toCharArray();  

   int i = removeSpaces(str);  

   System.out.println(String.valueOf(str).subSequence(0, i));  

}  

}

A parallel plates capacitor is filled with a dielectric of relative permittivity ε = 12 and a conductivity σ = 10^-10 S/m. The c
monitta

Answer:

t = 1.06 sec

Explanation:

Once disconnected from the battery, the capacitor discharges through the internal resistance of the dielectric, which can be expressed as follows:

R = (1/σ)*d/A, where d is is the separation between plates, and A is the area of one of  the plates.

The capacitance C , for a parallel plates capacitor filled with a dielectric of a relative permittivity ε, can be expressed in this way:

C = ε₀*ε*A/d = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

The voltage in the capacitor (which is proportional to the residual charge as it discharges through the resistance of the dielectric) follows an exponential decay, as follows:

V = V₀*e(-t/RC)

The product RC (which is called the time constant of the circuit) can be calculated as follows:

R*C = (1/10⁻¹⁰)*d/A*8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

Simplifying common terms, we finally have:

R*C = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12 / (1/10⁻¹⁰) sec = 1.06 sec

If we want to know the time at which the voltage will decay to 3.67 V, we can write the following expression:

V= V₀*e(-t/RC) ⇒ e(-t/RC) = 3.67/10 ⇒ -t/RC = ln(3.67/10)= -1

⇒ t = RC = 1.06 sec.
