Identifying the firm as a world-class retailer of electronics may have avoided distractions and kept management focused on maintaining its initial core competencies. 4. Best Buy largely inherited Circuit City’s position in electronics retailing and greatly benefited from Circuit City firing its highest-paid salespeople. The development

The Bohr Model An atom* is the smallest particle of an element that retains the characteristics of that element. Each of the known 118 elements has atoms that are different from the atoms of all other elements. This gives each element a unique atomic structure. According to the classical Bohr model‚ atoms have a planetary type of structure that consists of a central nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons‚ as illustrated in Figure 1–1. The nucleusconsists of positively charged particles called
