environmental strategies, employee empowerment, health and benefit plans for employees and corporate philanthropy. The linking factor between these different implementations is that corporations and businesses should expand their responsibility beyond absolute necessity and their core stakeholders group. While CSR is very modern as a defined concept it is still based on a lot of old ideas. For example many companies in the late 1800s based its business on scientific betterment which often meant that employee

textbook defines absolutism as “a political arrangement in which one ruler possesses unrivaled power (Western Civilization pg 184). Rulers received their power directly from God – theory of divine right – claiming they were above the law. As a result, absolute monarchs were viewed differently among the individual’s social class; the Noble’s view differed from the every day commoner’s view. Due to the divine right kingship beliefs monarchs receive an endless amount of power. Subjects believed God would

of flight is from right to left or in the negative –x direction). (ii) The pilot must maintain a constant horizontal speed v throughout the descent.(Note: speed is the absolute value of velocity. In this instance the velocity will be negative, however, the speed will be a positive number of the same magnitude). (iii) The absolute value of the vertical acceleration should not exceed a constant k (which is much less than the acceleration due to gravity). * -------------------------------------------------

Programming Assignments Dave Nielsen 1. Temperature Conversion Fahrenheit temperatures are converted to Celsius (centigrade) by the following formula: Celsius = x (Fahrenheit - 32) Write a program to convert Fahrenheit temperatures to their equivalent Celsius temperatures using a user-terminated loop. Input the Fahrenheit temperature and display both the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperatures. Use the following temperatures to test the program: 78.4 -50 98.6 32 212 0

Farm Buildings and Controlled Environments Lori Matthews S20000832 Assessment 1 1. (i) One method of measuring temperature is a thermistor sensor. This instrument contains a mixture of sulphides or oxides, or metals (iron, cobalt or copper) which have a high resistance at low temperatures but the resistance decreases quickly when warm. Therefore when the temperature changes, the resistance of the thermistor changes in a predictable way. This method of measuring temperature

1. The total surface area of all eight cubes equals out to 192 due to the equation below. [(2∗2)∗6]∗8=192 the equation for the larger equals 128 as seen here. (4∗4)∗6=96 192/96= 1:2 2. Water's density is ≈ 1,000kg/m^3 The displaced water occupies about 600/1000=.6m^3 The barge's area is 15m^2. V = L×W×H = .6m^3 H (depth of sinking) = .6m^3/15m^2 = .04m = 40mm” 3.

Chemistry IA Notes Design Research Question 1. Investigate a causal relationship. How does ‘X’ affect ‘Y’. ‘X’ and ‘Y’ need to be measurable. Eg. How does molecular mass of straight chain alcohol affect boiling point? Hypothesis 1. Predict the relationship and no need of the magnitude. Eg. As the molecular mass increases , the boiling point increases. 2. Explain the logic behind the hypothesis- Eg. As the molecular mass increases the B.P increases, the London Force increases, so does
