A high voltage power line carries a current of 105 A at a location where the Earth's magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.588 G and points the to the North, 74.7 degrees below the horizontal. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force exerted on a 253 m length of wire if the current in the wire flows horizontally toward the east?

ACQUISITION PROGRAM
Acquisition of Varta AG (Germany)
In 2002, Rayovac acquired the consumer battery business of Varta AG
of Germany. Varta was the leading European-based manufacturer of
general batteries and 86% of its revenues were generated in Europe.
Some overlap in Latin America permitted combined operations which
solidified Rayovac’s market lead outside of Brazil. Too, the
complementary geographic distribution of the firms’ production
facilities and distribution channels was expected to yield greater
access to global sourcing and generate cost savings of $30-40
million per year.
Acquisition of Microlite (Latin America)
In 2004 Rayovac acquired Microlite SA, the largest producer of
consumer batteries in Brazil and owner of the Rayovac brand name in
Brazil. It immediately realized a 50% market share in Latin
America’s largest consumer market. Rayovac replaced Microlite’s
management team with Rayovac veterans who reduced costs, increased
efficiency, improved product packaging, and raised prices 16%. The
Microlite business was also undercapitalized and losing money. It
was considered by lenders to be a high risk and, consequently, paid
very high interest rates. Rayovac immediately recapitalized the
business, replacing high interest-rate loans with lower interest
rate Rayovac-backed debentures. As a result of the acquisition,
Rayovac expected to increase total Latin America revenues by
approximately 50% in 2005.
Acquisition of 85% of Ningbo Baowang (China)
Located inNinghai, China, Ningbo Baowang was a major exporter of private label branded batteries. The company also sold its Baowang brand throughout China. Rayovac acquired the Chinese firm in 2004, hoping both to increase its presence in the rapidly growing Asian market and to add a low cost manufacturing subsidiary from which it could export Rayovac and Varta brand batteries to global markets. Rayovac replaced Ningbo’s management with its own to implement Rayovac process controls and management policies more efficiently. It also installed new manufacturing equipment that would allow it to produce over one billion Rayovac branded batteries a year beginning in 2005.
Explain how this acquisition program helps Rayovac to capitalize upon its strengths and opportunities and neutralize its weaknesses and threats.

Algol and her brother Altair have operated a successful tourism and souvenir business in Tasmania for a number of years. They incorporated that business under the name Beacon Fun Stuff Pty Ltd in 2019. At the beginning of 2020 Algol was approached by a company that sells souvenirs across Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia. They encouraged Algol and Altair to expand their souvenir manufacturing operations to enable sales of Australian souvenirs across these three states. Altair and Algol have agreed to the expansion and are considering incorporating another company. Currently Beacon Fun Stuff Pty Ltd does not have its own constitution but Altair feels that should they incorporate another company he and his sister should become clearer on the key benefits of operating a company and take some advice on if they should consider adopting a constitution instead of relying on the replaceable rules contained in the Corporations Act 2001(Cth)
Required:
Please advise Algol and Altair on:
a. the key benefits of operating a company rather than a partnership;
b. the role of the replaceable rules;
c. the role of a constitution for a company; and
d.the ways that a constitution can be adopted and the major limits on the right to alter a constitution once it has been established

Do this problem by making a neat, precise scaled drawing, using a ruler and protractor, ready to be turned in at the start of our next class. NOTE: "azimuth" means compass direction. North is considered 0°, east is 90°, south is 180°, and west is 270°.
Dr. Evil has been captured and is in a prison awaiting trial. His minions fly a helicopter to the prison, land in the courtyard, and hurriedly get him aboard. They take off. Hoping to confuse the police, they fly 35 km at azimuth 72°, then turn and go 57 km toward azimuth 52°, then turn again and fly 30 km at azimuth 325°, arriving at Dr. Evil's secret lair.
1. How far east of the prison is Dr. Evil's lair? (Negative if the final position is west.)
2. How far north of the prison is Dr. Evil's lair? (Negative if the final position is south.)
The prison authorities track the flight on radar, and thereby learn the location of Dr. Evil's secret lair. They have another helicopter, and take off to recapture Dr. Evil. They fly straight there from the prison.
3. How far do they have to fly distance:
4. and in what direction? azimuth: °
