Conclusion N/B: Safety Precaution must be minimum of four PART 1 SYNCHRONOUS MACHINE 1.1 INTRODUCTION A synchronous machine is an a.c machine in which the rotor moves at a speed which bears a constant relationship to the frequency of currents, in the armature winding. A synchronous machine is one of the important type of electric machines. Large a.c networks operating at constant frequency of 50Hz rely almost exclusively on synchronous generators, also called the alternators, for the supply of electrical energy. Private, stand-by and peak load plants with diesel or gas-turbine prime movers also have synchronous generators. Synchronous motors provide constant speed industrial drives with the possibility of power factor correction. Synchronous machine are generally constructed in larger sizes. Small size alternators are not economical. The modern trend is to build alternators of very large size capable of generating 500MVA or even more. The synchronous motor is rarely built in small sizes owing to superior performance characteristics and economical construction of induction motors. 1.2 OPERATING PRINCIPLE The operating principle of a synchronous machine is fundamentally the same as that of a d.c machine, but, unlike...

An increased demand for Lux Soap, for example, will lead to a rise in price if there is no close substitute. b) The price may remain constant if there is no change in supply. c) Increase in demand for inferior goods will cause the price to fall. Question 2: Discuss fully the merits and demerits of mergers and acquisition of banks in the consolidation exercise of 25 banks in Nigeria. A. MERITS OF MERGERS & ACQUISITION IN THE BANKING INDUSTRY IN NIGERIA Improvement of Financial Capacity: The consolidation in the banking industry will bring about improved financial capacities of the banks. Thus, the banks would have larger capitals at their disposal to finance mega projects both in the long and in the short terms. Management of the Foreign Reserves by the mega banks would enable the bank finance high capital intensive projects: manufacturing, oil and gas, agriculture etc. Security of Depositors’ Funds: The availability of this capital also means that the banks are now stronger and customers’ deposits would become safe. The issue of distress in the banking industry would become a thing of the past if the banks are able to effectively manage the large pool of funds. Improvement of Technical Capacity: The coming together of different banks will bring about improved technical capacity. The merging/acquired banks will benefit from the technical competence of one another. Improvement in Managerial Capacity: Other things being equal, the consolidation...

...Impact of mega-sporting events 1 The impact of international mega-sporting events oh host cities Regina Glazman 20151794 ARW2 for law students KIMEP regina.glazman@kimep.kz Impact of mega-sporting events 2 Abstract While a mega-sport event is scheduled at least once every year somewhere in the world, these events are rare occurrences for the host cities and countries. The benefits of such events seem lucrative; the very fact that many countries bid to host these events suggests that the benefits – be they tangible or intangible – more often than not outweigh the costs. However, some experts claim that it is almost impossible to achieve goal and provide a successful result. Therefore, the research question is : Do cities benefit from international mega-sporting events or it is just "showing-off"? When a city or nation is awarded the privilege of hosting a mega event, they are almost always required to enhance or develop their infrastructure. The developments which are created from these events are known as legacies. However, these legacies have a great risk to become "white elephants" ( Barclay, 2009,p.3). Thereupon, my research project was directed to understand do facilities in Almaty which were built for 2011 Asian Winter Games are used today and provide help for national athletes and the city. Result showed they do, but not without problems. However, legacies can come in many forms such as economic, tourism or sporting. Consequently, summarizing everything...

...presidents since its conception in 1904 (FIFA.com) Overview of the FIFA World Cup The FIFA World Cup is a men’s football sporting event of global proportion held every four years and organised by FIFA to unite and build a better future for the world through the power and popularity of football; which is an integrated part of society. The inaugural FIFA World Cup was held by Uruguay in 1930 and the tournament has been on for about eight decades with the 19th World Cup held in 2010 and hosted by South Africa. (FIFA.com) Referring to Jennings (2009), the FIFA World Cup is considered to be a mega event as it is suggested to involve extensive preparation and planning, exceptional scale and scope and long term resource commitment, particularly with regards to construction of infrastructure, budgetary planning and operations. This analysis therefore categorises the FIFA World Cup as a high risk mega event as it presents a site for operational, technological, social and political failures, some of which are caused by internal factors while others arise from the external environment. Situation Analysis FIFA has emerged unscathed from the turbulence in the financial markets and the global economic recession. It is even emerges stronger from this crisis. Compared to the previous period, the turnover and profit continues to grow in 2010 due to...

...Effects of Mega Events on Host Country’s Image: Image of China after the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games Abstract Mega events have intrigued the academia because of the huge impact they have on the host countries. Not only do mega events catalyse urban regeneration, they also have the ability to command international media’s attention. Furthermore, nations have been known to use mega events such as the Olympic Games, FIFA World Cup, and World Fair to rebuild image and draw in tourists to serve the economic development of the region. While the Olympics are one of the most studied mega events, most of them emphasise on the Western perspective probably because only three out of twenty-six Summer Games have been held in Asia. The most recent one is the 2008 Beijing Olympics, which is the focus of this research. In particular, this study aims to explore China’s image change after the event and the influencing factors that contribute to the change. One’s perception and image change are emotional and subjective; therefore, this research can gain a better insight through qualitative approach. Twenty participants from sixteen countries were recruited and interviewed for 20-30 minutes regarding the Beijing Olympics and related news around that time. The findings showed that China achieved moderate success in rebuilding its image in the economic and technological aspects. Many interviewees were impressed by its organising ability and modernisation. However, China failed to change...

...Access Methods of Secondary Storage Devices Secondary Storage Device is storage medium which is used to store large amount of data permanently until it is changed by user. Though it stores information, it cannot be accessed directly by the CPU. The data stored in Secondary Storage Device can be accessed depending upon how it is stored on the device. Mainly there are two methods of accessing data from the Secondary Storage Device. 1) Sequential Access Method 2) Direct Access Method Sequential Access Method – This means the computer system must search the storage device from the beginning until the desired data is found. The most common sequential access device is magnetic tape where data is stored and processed sequentially. For example, a tape contains information regarding students of a school, to look student’s number 100’s information, the computer will have to start with student number 1 and then go pass 2, 3, 4 and so on until it comes to 100. This method is quite simple than other methods, but it is very slow (more time for searching data) & very suitable for bills & payroll applications. Direct Access Method – This is also known as random access, it means the computer can go directly to the location where the data is stored that the user wants. The most common direct access devices are magnetic disc & optical disc. In these devices, the data is stored as sequentially numbered blocks. Thus one can access block 12, then block 78, then block 5 &...
