The electron is accelerated from rest near the negative plate and passes through a tiny hole in the positive plate, as seen in the figure below. With what speed does it leave the hole?Show that the gravitational force can be ignored by calculating the ratio of the gravitational to the electric force. Calculate that ratio.

Schedule of Cash Receipts
Rosita Flores owns Rosita's Mexican Restaurant in Tempe, Arizona. Rosita's is an affordable restaurant near campus and several hotels. Rosita accepts cash and checks. Checks are deposited immediately. The bank charges $0.60 per check; the amount per check averages $75. “Bad” checks that Rosita cannot collect make up 4 percent of check revenue.
During a typical month, Rosita's has sales of $49,000. About 80 percent are cash sales. Estimated sales for the next three months are as follows:
| April | $32,000 |
| May | 49,000 |
| June | 59,000 |
Required:
Prepare a schedule of cash receipts for May and June. Round your intermediate computations and final answers to the nearest whole dollar.

It requires substantial energy to reduce metal ore to pure metal. The reverse process, corrosion, happens spontaneously. The rusting of iron, the tarnishing of silver, and the formation of patina on copper and brass are some common examples of corrosion.
Rusting is the greatest corrosion problem because it occurs rapidly and because so many objects are made of iron and steel. A great deal of the annual production of iron goes simply to replace that lost by rusting. Iron will not rust in dry air or in water that is completely free of air. Oxygen gas and water must be present for iron to rust. Describe chemistry and electrochemistry of corrosion of iron and copper. In each redox reaction, specify the element that is being oxidized, the element that is being reduced, and identify the oxidizing and the reducing agent. Why cars rust more rapidly near the beach or in cold climate where salt is used to de-ice the roads?

While death maybe an unfortunate and inevitable occurrence in human life, the death of government policies was originally thought of as so or near impossible. Many researchers considered that termination can cause difficulties when trying to identify causal and predictable relationships. Possibly even more troublesome is the misunderstanding of what constitutes termination (Kinney, N, 2013).
However, the government of Malaysia have terminated several policies such as Teaching Science and Mathematics in English (PPSMI), Goods and Services Taxes (GST) and bend bridge project.
Based on the examples given above, do you agree with the author? Justify your answer
If you were hired as a public official and you were given instructions to terminate a program or a policy,
i) how would you proceed?
ii) would you apply the ‘big bang’ or the long whimper approach? Justify your answer?

Black hole formation as seen by a distant observer
Given that matter can never cross the event horizon of a black hole (from an external observer point of view), if a black hole is "fed" with a large amount of matter then the new matter will eventually become extremely compressed, and presumably would be compressed below its Schwarzchild radius.
Would secondary black holes eventually form near the original black hole?
As an alternative one could also imagine that the combined mass of the original black hole and the new mass around the event horizon becomes contained within the Schwarzchild radius of both masses, and so a new event horizon forms, "swallowing" the new mass around the edge of the original black hole.
This mechanism would allow black holes to swallow mass in a
finite time.
Would this contradict GR predictions?

Be sure to 1) give the null and alternative hypotheses, 2) label which hypothesis is the claim, 3) Identify whether the test is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed, 4) name the test being used, 5) find the P-value for the sample, 6) state whether you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis, and 7) give the conclusion in the context of the problem.
3. A student at South Plains College claims that the average cost of textbook is more than $75 dollars. Test this student’s claim using a 0.05 level of significance. A random sample of 15 textbooks had an average price of $78.15 and a standard deviation of $8.80. (9 pts)
4. The health of the bear population in Yellowstone National Park is monitored by periodic measurements taken from anesthetized bears. A sample of 54 bears has a mean weight of 182.9 lbs and it has previously been found that the population standard deviation of bear weights is 81.8 lb. Use a 0.10 level of significance to test the claim that the population mean of all such bear weights is less than 200 lb. (9 pts)

ACCOUNTING INTERMEDIATE 2
On 1st January 2014 Alex company dealers of electronic products purchased a building for $8,000,000. Its estimated useful life at that date was 20 years and the company applies straight line depreciation method. On 31st December 2018, the government launched a plan to construct a flyover adjacent to the building and the related construction reduced the access to the building due to the inability to park and enter to the building. Due to this reason the value for the building decreased. The company estimated that they can sell the building for $4,700,000 but it has to incur a cost of $205,000. Alternatively, if it continues to use it the present value of the net cash flows that the building would generate is $5,200,000. In 2019 the government constructed a service road parallel to the highway which improved the recoverable amount to $6,000,000. The depreciation for the year 2019 is $440,000 Calculate the carrying amount, recoverable amount and the necessary journal entries for the above scenario. You are required to:
A.Calculate accumulated depreciation & carrying value as at 31st Dec 2018, applying IAS 36.
B. Calculated recoverable amount & Impairment loss as at 31st Dec 2018 applying IAS 36.
C. Record relevant journal entries as at 31st Dec 2018 applying IAS 36 and amount to be recognized in statement of financial position.
D. Calculated carrying amount and amount of appreciation in building as at 31st Dec 2019 applying IAS 36.
E. Record relevant journal entry for regain in the value of impaired asset as at 31st Dec 2019 applying IAS 36.
F. A customer has made a claim against Alex Company for injury suffered following the purchases and use of a defective electronic product. Legal advisers have confirmed that Alex Company will probably have to pay financial compensation of $50,000 to the customers. In turn, Alex Company has made a counter claim against the suppliers of the defective products for $50,000 and believes it is probable that its claim against the supplier will be successful. Justify with reasons what adjustments, if any, should be made by Alex Company in the financial statements.
