Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1CBT
To determine
To Explain:
Focusing on Friedman:
Thomas Friedman's newest book is titled Hot, Flat, and Crowded: why we need a Green Revolution-And How it can Renew America. Research the internet to find out as much information as you can about this text. Why would a business manager be interested in reading this text? How will this text affect global business? Do you think Hot, Flat and crowded will have as great as impact on society as The world is Flat had on business? Why or why not?.

The rectangular gate shown in figure rotates about an axis through N. If a=3.3 ft,b=1.3 ft, d=2 ft, and the width perpendicular to the plane of the figure is 3 ft, what torque(applied to the shaft through N) is required to hold the gate closed?
The former expert solved the question, but I didn't
understand how he simplified the fractions.
A communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the carch (assume
altitude of 22.300 statute miles). Its transmitter generates 8.0 W. Assume the transmit-
ting antenna is isotropic. Its signal is received by the 210-ft diameter tracking parabo-
loidal antenna on the earth at the NASA tracking station at Goldstone, California. Also
assume no resistive loss in either antenna, perfect polarization match, and perfect
impedance match at both antennas. At a frequency of 2 GHz, determine the:
(a) power density (in watts/m²) incident on the receiving antenna.
(b) power received by the ground-based antenna whose gain is 60 dB.
An elevated tank feeds a simple pipe system as shown. There is a fire hydrant atpoint C. The minimum allowable pressure at point C is 22 psig for firefighting requirements.What are the maximum static head (in ft) as well as pressure (in psig) at point C (i.e. nodischarge in the system)? Do we meet the pressure requirement for firefighting? (Please donot worry about L or d in the figure below)
