Ch 7 – Pressure Vessel Stresses A naturalist, William Beebe, wished to construct a manner submersible that would help him explore the ocean at a depth far greater that previously reached. His proposal was to have cylindrical shaped pressure vessel. However, the submersible would be subjected to huge external pressure. Otis Barton would then suggest what he felt was the most practical design was spherical pressure vessel, which was later known as “Bathysphere.” The bathysphere has windows of 8 inches in diameter and 3 inches in thickness. The submersible was accessible using an opening that is 14 inches in diameter, and it was secured with a watertight door that is fastened by 10 bolts. Further, oxygen was supplied to internal tanks and the quality of air enhanced using trays of powered chemicals meant to absorb both moisture and carbon dioxide. To lower the vessel into the ocean, it was tethered by a steel cable, and there was also another cable, electric cable, to supply lighting and allow communication with the ship. One of the objectives in this study was…

Decision-making in an organization In any organization, business laws and ethics play a vital role in making decisions that permeate everyday life. On analyzing the business ethics, a WH framework is normally used. This framework comprises ethical rules and guidelines that urge the organization to consider whom the actions affect, the view of its morality, and the action purpose. Also, this framework is normally utilized when making ethical decisions requiring primary factors such as stakeholders and how the action will be conducted. This paper will analyze the Ford Pinto case which is often discussed when it comes to business ethics. Indeed, the decision by the Ford Company was unethical because failing to repair the defective Pintos’ fuel tank does not in any case comply with the ethical guidelines. According to the WH framework, this is a lose-lose situation for both the customers and the company stakeholders. The who-how framework normally identifies the people who are affected and how they are being affected by a particular decision or action. in the case of the Ford Pinto, the affected people are the…

In this system, the focus is on results while employing the established structure of the organization and evaluates results based on the organization’s system of reward and penalties. The leaders using the transactional method usually have formal power and position of responsibility in the organization, they are accountable for keeping routine through the management of individual as well as group performance (Ibarra, 2015). How Transactional leadership Works Under transactional leadership, rewards and punishment are contingents based on the follower’s performance. The leaders using this approach believes that the only existing relationship between managers and employees is exchange, that is, in every action the must be an equal opposite reaction.

The respiratory system Q1. The lungs have two membranes that surround them, the pleural membranes that enclose a fluid-filled space. Regarding this, the fluid as well as the membranes serve to protect the lungs and provide lubrication. The membranes hold a fluid called the pleural fluid. Nevertheless, if the air accumulates in between the membranes, it causes pneumothorax. Pneumothorax or a collapsed lung refers to the build-up of air in the pleural space. More importantly, when a significant amount of air accumulates in the lungs, it can compress the lungs and impede the ability of the lungs to expand. Q2. Regarding intrapulmonary pressure, the pressure inside the lungs decreases as the volume of the lungs increases during inspiration; pressure increases during expiration. However, concerning the intrapleural pressure, the pleural cavity pressure becomes more negative as the walls of the chest expand during inspiration. Therefore, the air becomes saturated with water that has a partial pressure of 47mmHg. Q3. The alveoli consist of two main types of cells. For instance, type I and type II cells. Concerning this, type I cells…
