a 70 kg skier starts from rest and goes down a 50 m long, 10 degree slope. Using the coefficient of friction between the wood skis and snow, what is his speed at the bottom.

Below is the outline of a mathematics activity a third-grade teacher recently completed with her students. Learning Goal: The learner will be able to identify and create models of the following fractions: ⅓, ¼, ½ Lesson Plan: Ask the students if they have ever eaten a pizza and show them a fake pizza in slices in a pizza box. Have students discuss the different ways a pizza could be divided. Students sit with a partner and complete a worksheet titled, "Equal Parts or Unequal Parts?" Using manipulatives, the teacher uses the document camera to show students how to take a whole pie and turn it into the following fractions: ⅓, ¼, ½. Students sit with a partner and complete a worksheet titled, "Draw the Pizza Pie." Have each group come up to the board one at a time and draw one of the fraction pies with a dry erase marker. Teacher Notes: Around half of the groups draw the correct fractions on the board. The rest draw pies that have equal parts, but the incorrect fraction. When I graded both worksheets, 60% of partner pairs demonstrated mastery of the material. The lesson plan shows the teacher understands the importance of: a grouping students by skill level. b engaging students in the lesson's content. c utilizing the gradual release model. d assessing individual student progress.

Problem 3 (15 points) Water is discharged from a tank to the atmosphere at C . The volumetric flow rate is

with the gate valve A fully open. The pipe is made of galvanized iron with a mean roughness

. The entrance to the pipe is sharp-edged with a minor loss coefficient of 0.5 and there are two 90-degree elbows. The free surface

is exposed to air. Neglect the minor loss associated with the exit. Find the pipe diameter d (Hint: Gate valve and elbow loss coefficient can be found from the table supplied below. You will need first to establish an eqn. relating the diameter to the friction factor. Iterations may be needed to find the solution). \table[[\table[[Loss coefficients for pipe],[fittings]],

The data model was key A community hospital purchased a new automated MPI system. The hospital selection and implementation team had conducted a requirements analysis and obtained a data model of the new system from the vendor. The team conducted a walk-through of the conceptual data model from the vendor and determined that it met all of the hospital's requirements. The hospital scheduled the conversion from the old to the new system to occur overnight when activity was minimal. System technicians loaded all of the MPI data from the old to the new system without incident. The next morning when registration clerks attempted to access information from the MPI for patient clinic visits and admissions to the hospital, they could not retrieve correct patient medical record numbers. The new system was immediately shut down and technical personnel had to convert back to the old system until the problem was identified. A major concern was that the new system might corrupt other downstream systems that relied on MPI data, such as laboratory, R-ADT, and radiology systems. An immediate investigation took place to identify the problem. It was discovered that the new system allocated 7 characters for the medical record number when the actual medical record number was eleven characters long. During conversion, medical record numbers were truncated in the new system and trailing digits were added to the next medical record number. During a debriefing of the situation, the implementation team recognized that while the conceptual data model met functional requirements, it did not provide sufficient detail about entity attributes such as field type and length. A major breakdown in the team's analysis was not comparing the new system physical data model to data model in the old system. An underlying problem was that there was no physical data model for the old system. Discussion Questions 1. What governance standards might be applied to ensure that this kind of problem would not occur again? 2. Since the hospital did not have a data model for the old system, what options might they have used to ensure that the new data model met their requirements?
