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.

1) A train accelerates from 36 km/hr to 54 km/hr in 10 s. Find acceleration?

Crank

Answer: Given:

Initial velocity= 36km/h=36x5/18=10m/s

Final velocity =54km/h=54x5/18=15m/s

Time =10sec

Acceleration = v-u/ t

=15-10/10=5/10=1/2=0.5 m/s2

Distance =s=?

From second equation of motion:

S=ut +1/2 at^2

=10*10+1/2*0.5*10*10

=100+25

=125m

So distance travelled 125m

Hope it helps you

Calculate the equivalent resistance for both circuits. Series circuit: 2 Ω and 4 Ω Parallel circuit: 2 Ω and 4 Ω Which circuit h

goldenfox [79]

Equivalent resistance is also known as the overall resistance.

For resistors in a series circuit, the total resistance is computed using the formula:

$R_{T} = R_{1}+ R_{2}+ R_{3}... R_{n}$

In other words, you just add up the resistance of each resistor in the series circuit. In your case you only have two resistors. You have 2Ω and 4Ω. So all you need to do is add that up.

$R_{T} = R_{1}+ R_{2}$
$R_{T} = 2 + 4=6$

The total resistance of the series circuit is 6Ω

In a parallel circuit you get the total resistance using the formula:
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\frac{1}{R_{3}}...+\frac{1}{R_{n}}$

First you get the sum of all fractions and at the end take the reciprocal of the resulting fraction and divide. So let us take your problem into consideration where you have two resistors that have a resistance of 2Ω and 4Ω.

$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}$
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{2}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{3}{4}$

Get the reciprocal of the resulting fraction 3/4 and then divide. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3.

4/3 = 1. 33Ω

So if you compare the equivalent resistance of the two circuits, the series circuit has a higher equivalent resistance.

Coherent light from a sodium-vapor lamp is passed through a filter that blocks everything except for light of a single wavelengt

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

λ = 6.61 x 10⁻⁷ m = 661 nm

Explanation:

From the Young's Double Slit experiment, the the spacing between adjacent bright or dark fringes is given by the following formula:

Δx = λL/d

where,

Δx = fringe spacing = 2.86 mm = 2.86 x ⁻³ m

L = Distance between slits and screen = 2.12 m

d = slit separation = 0.49 mm = 0.49 x 10⁻³ m

λ = wavelength of light = ?

Therefore,

2.86 x 10⁻³ m = λ(2.12 m)/(0.49 x 10⁻³ m)

(2.86 x 10⁻³ m)(0.49 x 10⁻³ m)/(2.12 m) = λ

λ = 6.61 x 10⁻⁷ m = 661 nm
