CHAPTER 2 SOLUTIONS TO SUPPLEMENTARY PROBLEMS FROM SCOTT TEXTBOOK 6th edition 11. Several reasons can be suggested why oil company managers have reservations about RRA: • The discount rate of 10% might not reflect the firm’s cost of capital. • Low reliability. RRA involves making a large number of assumptions and estimates. While SFAS 69 deals with low reliability in part by requiring end-of-period oil and gas prices to be used (rather than prices anticipated when the reserves are expected

THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT The Pilgrims came to the New World seeking a refuge from Holland. They then obtained grants for land originally for land in northern part of Virginia and began their 3.000 mile journey toward the New World. They had landed on a coast of Massachusetts‚ which they had named Plymouth Plantation. The Mayflower Compact was drawn out by the Pilgrims in 1620. The Pilgrims knew the only way a new settlement would work is if they had a strong government. It was a "Civil Body Politick"

They wanted a new life in America so they could freely practice their religion. The rest of the passengers were called “strangers‚” which included merchants‚ craftsmen‚ skilled workers and indentured servants. The Pilgrims and the “strangers” were different because the Pilgrims went to America for

Vocabulary Chapter 16-22 Compact theory - Regarding the Constitution of the United States of America‚ the compact theory holds that the nation was formed through a compact agreed upon by all the states‚ and that the federal government is consequently a creation of the states. Consequently‚ states should be the final arbiters over whether the federal government had overstepped the limits of its authority as set forth in the compact.

Coefficients of Friction Discussion: Friction is the force that resists motion and can be determined in either static situations or kinetic situations using the following equation: [pic] Static friction is the amount of friction that resists the start of motion and kinetic friction resists an object’s continued motion. The coefficient of friction depends on a number of factors including surface area and the types of surfaces in contact. The only way to determine a coefficient of friction is experimentally

Drama In the 1580s Philip Sidney complained that English playwrights were ignoring the principles of drama; he meant the classical principles exemplified by the tragedies of Seneca and the comedies of Plautus‚ Ben Jonson published his own plays in a grandiose format‚ and with a title (The Works of Benjamin Jonson)‚ that invited comparison with the editions of these same dramatists.

Pipe Friction Summary The purpose of this lab is to find the friction factor and Reynolds number for laminar and turbulent flow and also for values in the critical zone. Results were taken recorded and used to calculate the friction factor and Reynolds number. They were then compared with the Moody diagram. Aim This lab could be used in industry when dealing with a pipe line containing any type of liquid to calculate the Reynolds number and friction factor. It would also help in pipe

Static Friction INTRODUCTION When an object is placed on a surface it will remain static unless the resolved component of the force due to gravity acting parallel to the surface exceeds the friction force associated with the static coefficient of friction between surfaces by placing various objects on a surface and tilting the surface until the object begins to slip. By measuring the angle at which the object begins to slip‚ it is then possible to calculate the coefficient of friction between

EFFECT OF SURFACE AREA ON AIR FRICTION Design Background Information: Air resistance‚ also called drag‚ is the forces that are in opposition to the relative motion of an object through the air. Drag forces act opposite to the oncoming flow velocity. Size and shape are the two factors that affect air resistance. Air resistance depends on the surface area‚ so‚ as the surface area increases‚ the air resistance increases. When an object is falling‚ air resistance acts to push it back up. This is
