an essay on the following topic: "Discuss cultural differences as they exist in American and Vietnamese culture and suggest some ways to overcome them." CONTENT The difference of culture impacts so much to the way to living‚ the way of thinking and the way of doing business. America and Vietnam have a big difference in culture‚ religion and business. However‚ we live in a world where it is called flat world‚ where there is no restriction between countries. It requires us to integrate in order to

egrettably‚ Professor Jayavel Sounderpandian passed away before the revision of the text commenced. He had been a consistent champion of the book‚ first as a loyal user and later as a productive co-author. His many contributions and contagious enthusiasm will be sorely missed. In the seventh edition of Complete Business Statistics‚ we focus on many improvements in the text‚ driven largely by recommendations from dedicated users and others who teach business statistics. In their reviews‚ these

Static Electricity Everything is made up of tiny particles called atoms. The atoms are made up of even smaller parts called protons‚ electrons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge (+)‚ electrons have a negative charge (-) and neutrons have no charge at all‚ they are neutral. Atoms normally have the same amount of electrons and protons‚ making them neutral and having no charge. When rubbing things together‚ electrons can move from one atom to another‚ resulting in some atoms having extra

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

2 devices that use static electricity to funtion 1. Van de Graaff generator When the motor is turned on‚ the lower roller (charger) begins turning the belt. The belt is made of rubber and the lower roller is covered in silicon tape‚ the lower roller begins to build a negative charge and the belt builds a positive charge. Silicon is more negative than rubber so the lower roller is receiving electrons from the belt when it goes over the roller. The positively charged atomic nuclei‚ try to

The whole structure is idealized as a sandwich beam in this method. Initially the differential

scientific results achieved throughout the Ph.D. period. Five subjects – all increasing the understanding of optical networks – are studied. Static wavelength routed optical networks are studied. Management on terms of lightpath allocation and design is considered. By using statistical models (simultaneous analysis of many networks) the correspondence between parameters determining the network topology and the performance of the optical network is found. These dependencies are important knowledge
