how each of these "w"?  im guessing it means work. and three weapons from then that are "new"? are:

Rifles. All nations used more than one type of firearm during the First World War. The rifles most commonly used by the major combatants were, among the Allies, the Lee-Enfield .303 (Britain and Commonwealth), Lebel and Berthier 8mm (France), Mannlicher–Carcano M1891, 6.5mm (Italy), Mosin–Nagant M1891 7.62 (Russia), and Springfield 1903 .30–06 (USA). The Central Powers employed Steyr–Mannlicher M95 (Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria), Mauser M98G 7.92mm (Germany), and Mauser M1877 7.65mm (Turkey). The American Springfield used a bolt-action design that so closely copied Mauser’s M1989 that the US Government had to pay a licensing fee to Mauser, a practice that continued until America entered the war.

Machine guns. Most machine guns of World War 1 were based on Hiram Maxim’s 1884 design. They had a sustained fire of 450–600 rounds per minute, allowing defenders to cut down attacking waves of enemy troops like a scythe cutting wheat. There was some speculation that the machine gun would completely replace the rifle. Contrary to popular belief, machine guns were not the most lethal weapon of the Great War. That dubious distinction goes to the artillery.

Flamethrowers. Reports of infantry using some sort of flame-throwing device can be found as far back as ancient China. During America’s Civil War some Southern newspapers claimed Abraham Lincoln had observed a test of such a weapon. But the first recorded use of hand-held flamethrowers in combat was on February 26, 1915, when the Germans deployed the weapon at Malancourt, near Verdun. Tanks carried on a man’s back used nitrogen pressure to spray fuel oil, which was ignited as it left the muzzle of a small, hand-directed pipe. Over the course of the war, Germany utilized 3,000 Flammenwerfer troops; over 650 flamethrower attacks were made. The British and French both developed flame-throwing weapons but did not make such extensive use of them.

there are many more, but here are 3 i found from a trustworthy source!

Ultimate Company is a defendant in a lawsuit alleging damages of $3 billion. The litigation is expected to continue for several
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Option B.

Explanation:

A loss contingency refers to a charge to expense for what is considered to be a probable future event, such as an adverse outcome of a lawsuit. A loss contingency usually gives the person who is reading an organization's financial statements an early warning of a payment which is impending, and which is related to a likely obligation.

In the scenario presented above, we can see that Ultimate Company is involved in a lawsuit and might be expected to pay $3 billion, this reflects the situation of a loss contingency which should be disclosed in notes to Ultimate Company's financial statements.

Except in extreme cases, the evaluation of success or failure is ________ because time and cost to complete the project are ____
8090 [49]
<span>Except in extreme cases, the evaluation of success or failure is subjective because time and cost to complete the project are estimates.

Things can go "wrong" or "right" in someones mind even if the overall project is going smoothly. Since project completion times are typically estimates, success is going to be subjective. In designing a new product, until that project launches and is deemed a success or failure, it's hard to classify it. </span>

Plant-wide, department, and activity-cost rates. Acclaim Inc. makes two styles of trophies, basic and deluxe, and operates at ca
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Acclaim Inc.

                                         Basic Trophies     Deluxe Trophies

Budgeted unit cost:

a. using single-plant o/h rate   $17.60                  $28.80

b. using departmental rates    $17.42                  $29.16

c. using ABC                            $18.26                  $27.48

d. They show different costs because the overhead rates are based on different parameters.

I recommend ABC system.  It is more fair because the overhead rates are based on product line's activity usage instead of an arbitrary figure.

Does each Subway $5 Footlong cost the franchisee more than $5? Subway, the fast food restaurant franchise, recently announced it
g100num [7]

Once upon a time there was a american male named NF. He was the lord of the flies. He ruled all flying insects and he used them against his enemies. Which were humans and spiders. You see, humans kill all bugs that they see... and spiders feed on whatever FLIES into their web. In NF's eyes, they were his insects' natural predators. So what he would do is get a group of flying insects (that contains like 100,000 a pack) and when humans try to attack or swat at them in any way... they would eat all the flesh of the bones on their face in 2.5 seconds. His buddies were so dangerous and well known that this was a worldwide thing. Nf wasn't always a man with a giant army behind him. He grew up poor... living on a bus stop. No mom. No Dad. Nf was so filthy, that bugs had surrounded him everywhere he went. At nighttime, when he was bored, he'd always talk to insects. And his imagination was so big, That he thought they talked back. He was a ten at the time. Sometimes, when he asked for money, younger children used to laugh at him and called him “dirty boy.” He was walking to school one day. And a teacher had noticed him... she called out "where are your parents?". He didn't respond... but walked  faster. She tried her best to keep up with him... but she couldn't. "WAIT NF.. HOW ARE YOU RUNNING SO FAST!!" She had reached the limit on her rusty old car. Which was only ninety-five miles per hour. His teacher got out of her vehicle and put her glasses on... and saw what was really going on. A huge group of insects (his lil crew) had been flying him. She had a heart attack and died  once she realized what was really going on. There was a tale going around that when they found the body (body?), there was no meat... or no skin. Nf was then considered a very dangerous boy because he was the last one to see her before her death day. They had absolutely no evidence on how he committed the murder, but still... he was guilty. HE WAS ARRESTED AT THE AGE OF TEN. No prisoner had enough guts to even go near him. HE SERVED 2 YEARS FOR SOMETHING HE NEVER DID. He never had faced hunger... because his flies used to come in and bring him food. One day a police officer had discovered the group of flies on their way to the young boy. Police officer Pete was frightened and shot that bad boy twice. BOOM!! BOOM!! He hurt 500 flies. And because of the speed of the bullet... it had broken through the metal bars... and shot NEAR Nf's face. He was afraid. And cried for help. A pack of police officers had rushed through the door and saw officer Pete lying on the ground. Dead. No meat. No skin. No living thing besides NF. The flies had disappeared . How? No one ever knew (at the moment). But they rewinded the security cameras. And saw exactly what happened. NF was set free out of jail. Everyone that saw him called him “Lord of the Flies”. They tried to put him into a foster home.... but the flies quickly picked him up.The people didn't even bother to chase after him. Or try to find him. They knew that THOSE "INSECTS" were his bestest buddies. The word flew around quickly. Don't overthink the situation. Nf was no super villain or anything... he was just simply The Lord of the Flies.

Both Projects A and B are acceptable as independent projects. However, the selection of either one of these eliminates the optio
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: Mutually exclusive

Explanation:

In probability theory and logic, two propositions or events are disjoint or mutually exclusive if both events cannot occur at the same time. An example is the outcomes derived from the single toss of a coin which either be head or tail

In the project example given, the theory used is called mutually exclusive since both projects can not be chosen at the same time and it is only one project at w time. Mutually exclusive events are also called independent events since they have no effect on the viability of the other options.
