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 cart of mass M is attached to an ideal spring that can stretch and compress equally well. The cart and spring rest on a smooth

Alexxx [7]

We have to remember a point , which is ' the cart or spring rest on a smooth horizontal track ' , i.e., any frictional force doesn't take place.

Explanation:

a) According to the question the cart is pulled to position A and released, i.e., the velocity of the cart at A initially (say time,t=0) is 0 m/s ,then moves toward position E, where it reverses direction and returns again to position A , in the 2nd phase cart moves along A to E , the cart's velocity increase and again goes to zero at point E and again change the direction, hence

b) Let's , the distance between two consecutive points is x meter and the spring constant is k N.m

c) ( File has been attached)

d) Movinf Right

e) Moving left

If you use a marble of radius 11 mm for mercury, how far from the sun must you place your outermost planet? express your answer

mariarad [96]

Well so we know that 11mm is 2440km so 1mm is 2440/11 which is 221.8.
Ans we know that Neptune is the farthest and the distance is 4.498 billion km the we would divide that by 221.8 to get answer.
Ans=2.36km

If 0.600 mol of a nonvolatile nonelectrolyte are dissolved in 3.70 mol of water, what is the vapor pressure ph2o of the resultin

fredd [130]

To get the vapor pressure of the resulting solution, we use the Raoult’s Law:

Psolution = (χsolvent) (P°solvent)

1st: Calculate the mol fraction of the solvent. In this case, water is the solvent.

χsolvent = 3.7 mol / (3.7 mol + 0.6 mol)

χsolvent = 0.86

2nd: Calculate the vapor pressure.

Psolution = (0.86) (23.8 torr)

Psolution = 20.48 torr
