According to Buckingham and Clifton, most business organizations are built on these two (2) flawed assumptions:

1. Everyone can learn almost everything.

2. People's best room for growth is in the areas of weakness.

Marcus W. Buckingham is an English author, business consultant and motivational speaker who was born on the 11th of January, 1966 in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England.

Donald O. Clifton was an American author, educator, psychologist, business entrepreneur and researcher who was born on the 5th of February, 1924 in Butte, Nebraska‎, United States of America.

While studying as a student in Cambridge, Marcus W. Buckingham was recruited by Prof. Donald O. Clifton as an assistant in a research (survey) that was aimed at helping business organizations identify talents in various individuals, so as to effectively match them with the right job positions or roles.

In the book titled "Now, Discover Your Strengths" which was co-authored by both Buckingham and Clifton, most business organizations were said to be typically built on these two (2) flawed assumptions:

Everyone can learn to be competent in almost anything.

People's best (greatest) room for growth is in their areas of weakness.

However, the two (2) assumptions on which the world’s best managers operate include:

Each individual has an enduring and unique talent.

People's best (greatest) room for growth is in their areas of strength.

a car accelerates from 4 meters/second to 16 meter/second in 4 seconds. The cars acceleration is how many meter/seconds.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

=3 metre per second ^2

Explanation:

Formula for acceleration is

V-U÷T

In the given information

V=16

U=4

T=4

Acceleration =16-4/4

=3 metre per second ^2

a bike is moving with a velocity of 90km/hr.after applying break it stops in 5 sec. calculate the force applied by brakes .mass

pentagon [3]

Explanation:

initial velocity(u) = 90 km/s = 25 m/s

time (t) = 5 sec

mass (m) = 200 kg

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

v = u + at

0 = 25 + a * 5

-25 = 5 a

-5 = a

Therefore acceleration = -5m/s²

Force = mass * acceleration

F = 200*-5

F = -1000 N

How do I do this physics problem about potential energy and kinetic energy?

larisa86 [58]

Ok i apologise for the messy working but I'll try and explain my attempt at logic

Also note i ignore any air resistance for this.

First i wrote the two equations I'd most likely need for this situation, the kinetic energy equation and the potential energy equation.

Because the energy right at the top of the swing motion is equal to the energy right in the "bottom" of the swing's motion (due to conservation of energy), i made the kinetic energy equal to the potential energy as indicated by Ek = Ep.

I also noted the "initial" and "final" height of the swing with hi and hf respectively.

So initially looking at this i thought, what the heck, there's no mass. Then i figured that using the conservation of energy law i could take the mass value from the Ek equation and use it in the Ep equation. So what i did was take the Ek equation and rearranged it for m as you can hopefully see. Then i substituted the rearranged Ek equation into the Ep equation.

So then the equation reads something like Ep = (rearranged Ek equation for m) × g (which is -9.81) × change in height (hf - hi).

Then i simplify the equation a little. When i multiply both sides by v^2 i can clearly see that there is one E on each side (at that stage i don't need to clarify which type of energy it is because Ek = Ep so they're just the same anyway). So i just canceled them out and square rooted both sides.

The answer i got was that the max velocity would be 4.85m/s 3sf, assuming no losses (eg energy lost to friction).

I do hope I'm right and i suppose it's better than a blank piece of paper good luck my dude xx

Suppose you have a 75-watt light bulb that you leave turned on for two minutes. How much energy

victus00 [196]

Answer:

9000 J

Explanation:

Convert minutes to seconds.

2 min = 120 s

Power = energy / time

75 W = E / 120 s

E = 9000 J

At a given instant an object has an angular velocity. It also has an angular acceleration due to torques that are present. There

katen-ka-za [31]

a) Constant

b) Constant

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using the equivalent of Newton's second law of motion of rotational motion, which can be written as:

$\tau_{net} = I \alpha$ (1)

where

$\tau_{net}$ is the net torque acting on the object in rotation

I is the moment of inertia of the object

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of the angular velocity, so it can be written as

$\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta \omega$ is the change in angular velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

$\tau_{net}=I\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}$

In this problem, we are told that at a given instant, the object has an angular acceleration due to the presence of torques, so there is a non-zero change in angular velocity.

Then, additional torques are applied, so that the net torque suddenly equal to zero, so:

$\tau_{net}=0$

From the previous equation, this implies that

$\Delta \omega =0$

Which means that the angular velocity at that instant does not change anymore.

In this second case instead, all the torques are suddenly removed.

This also means that the net torque becomes zero as well:

$\tau_{net}=0$

Therefore, this means that

$\Delta \omega =0$

So also in this case, there is no change in angular velocity: this means that the angular velocity of the object will remain constant.

So cases (a) and (b) are basically the same situation, as the net torque is zero in both cases, so the object acts in the same way.
