Mars Climate Orbiter engineering failure vs very  successful  Mars Exploration Rovers missions

Investigate the failed Mars Climate Orbiter mission by doing your own on line research and by reading pages 160-161 in the textbook(engneering fundemental by Saeed Moaveni) in advance of the lecture on chapter 6. Write a 2-page paper that summarizes what happened. In this paper explain the follow-on precautions that were taken to prevent a re-occurrence of the same issues, which led to the three enormously successful Mars Exploration Rovers - Spirit and Opportunity and the recent Curiosity Rover Mission. Explain how the Spirit and Opportunity missions and the Curiosity Rover mission compared to the Mars Climate Orbiter mission from an engineering perspective, especially relating to Chapter 6 in the textbook. (We will have just covered Chapter 6 the day the assignment is due, but just consider the importance of correct engineering units, as we have already discussed in class). DO NOT WAIT TO BEGIN YOUR WRITE-UP until we cover Chapter 6 on 10/4!!! Also consider other key engineering issues studied in the Chapters 1-5 including engineering ethics, engineering communications, and engineering design. Give specific examples in all cases that identifies the engineering practices that worked along with those that did not work (and why). Include a MLA-formatted reference list and in-text citations. If you are unfamiliar with MLA see this site for help. The MLA source list does not count towards the 2-page write-up page limit. You should cite the textbook and the on line sources included in the assignment, plus any others that you use. Use the proper MLA format for on line sources and textbooks and in-text citations.

A lot of 100 items contains 10% which are defective and 90% nondefective. Two are chosen at random. Let A = {the first item non defective}, B = {the second item non defective}. Find P(B) and show P(B) = P(A). Why is this?

Question 26 Why are non-point sources of water pollution harder to control then point sources? Give an example of a point source and an example of a non-point source of water pollution.  Describe with details how the dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico forms. .

As an auditor, you are asked to audit a small non-profit (cash basis). Present what you would do to audit the cash records of a small non-profit audit client. Explain the steps to audit the company and why those steps are important.

Not Really an essay. Filtration is a relatively non-selective process. Make a list of the specific substances that pass through the filtration membrane. Make another list of the substances that do not. Are there any advantages for using a non-selective process in producing filtrate? Are there any disadvantages?

As the owner of a company that sells inventory and non-inventory items, discuss with your peers how you would establish what you designate as inventory vs non-inventory. Draw from your understanding of accounting and not just the discussion as it relates to QuickBooks.

This was given as a discussion question. No further information. I believe it has to be a biological and non-biological molecule.

Give one biological example of where shape determines function AND one non biological example. Be sure to explain how the shape helps the function.
