Building the Boeing 787 1. What are the benefits to Boeing of outsourcing so much work on the 787 to foreign suppliers? What are the potential risks? Do the benefits outweigh the risks? Benefits: * Outsourcing the state-of-the-art electronics on the flight deck and in the passenger compartments allowed Boeing to reduce the risks associated with this technological gamble; * Boeing was able to negotiate $8 billion in development costs from the partners in return for a share of

The Boeing 737 is a short- to medium-range‚ twin-engine narrow-body jet airliner. Originally developed as a shorter‚ lower-cost twin-engine airliner derived from Boeing’s 707 and 727‚ the 737 has developed into a family of nine passenger models with a capacity of 85 to 215 passengers. The 737 is Boeing’s only narrow-body airliner currently in production‚ with the -600‚ -700‚ -800‚ and -900ER variants currently being manufactured. Originally envisioned in 1964‚ the initial 737-100 first flew in 1967

Discovering the equilibrium constant for a reaction is very helpful for understanding that reaction. Knowing the equilibrium constant of a reaction is important because it allows you to calculate how much product will ultimately be formed during a reaction. Moreover‚ it also tells you how a particular mixture of chemicals will react. This is because chemical reactions always occur in the direction which will make the ratio of their products to reactants equal to the equilibrium constant.

This article discusses the importance of Boeing to seek parts and components for their planes‚ including military planes‚ in countries outside of the U.S.; in other words‚ globalizing their company. However‚ to every story there are two sides‚ in this case – the pros and cons of globalization. One of the biggest advantages of globalization today is that when companies go multinational‚ they retain or gain competitiveness within their field. Throughout the world‚ there are many great ideas when

Lab O6 – Equilibrium Lab Application Purpose: An introduction to the qualitative aspects of chemical equilibrium. Starting with a reaction at equilibrium‚ one will change the concentration of various ions present in the equilibrium‚ and record the states of the changing equilibrium through observation. Theory: Equilibrium- the point at which a solution has become perfectly saturated; when their forward and reverse reaction rates are equal Concentration- a measurement of how much solute

and answer these questions: A. Which way should the equilibrium shift when HCl is added? How do your results support your answer? It should shift to the left because adding any component causes the equilibrium to shift to the opposite side. B. Which way should the equilibrium shift when Na2EDTA is added? How do your results support your answer? It should shift to the right because the removal of a component causes the equilibrium to shift to the side from which the component was removed
