Wally’s Widget Warehouse takes orders from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The manager wants to analyze the process and has provided the following process flow diagram. There are three steps required to ship a customer order. The first step is to take the order from a customer. The second step is to pick the order for the customer, and then they have to pack the order to ready it for shipping. Wally promises that every order placed today gets shipped tomorrow. That means the picking and packing operations must finish all orders before they go home.
Wally wants to figure out the following:
What is the current maximum output of the process assuming that no one works overtime?
How long will the picking and packing operations have to work if we have a day where the order taker works at his maximum capacity?
Given b, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be picked?
Given b, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be packed?
If we double the packing capacity (from 60 to 120 orders per hour), what impact does this have on your answers in parts (b), (c), and (d)?
Please show work!

The Model View Controller (MVC) and Tier architecture are two of the most widely used web design architectures currently in use.
a. Explain both concepts to a team of research who want you to build a website and publish their work.
b. Make a case by thoroughly explaining why one of the architectures in ‘a’ should be chosen over the other.
c. Brief the researchers on the dangers of using the internet and the necessary steps that you would put in place to curtail such dangers.

The inversion of compound B is experimentally determined to
follow the rate law: d[B]/dt =
-k[B]a[H+]b.
At 25 °C and a constant pH of 3.00, the reaction proceeds with a
constant half-life of 40.0 min. At this same temperature, but at a
constant pH of 1.00, the half-life is constant at 4.00 min. What
are the exponents (orders) a and b in the above rate law?

A helium balloon ride lifts up passengers in a basket. Assume the density of air is 1.28 kg/m3 and the density of helium in the balloon is 0.18 kg/m3. The radius of the balloon (when filled) is R = 5.4 m. The total mass of the empty balloon and basket is mb = 121 kg and the total volume is Vb = 0.062 m3. Assume the average person that gets into the balloon has a mass mp = 72 kg and volume Vp = 0.079 m3.
volume of helium in the balloon when fully inflated? :660
magnitude of the force of gravity on the entire system (but with no people)? Include the mass of the balloon, basket, and helium. : 2352
buoyant force on the entire system (but with no people)? Include the volume of the balloon, basket, and helium. :8287
1)What is the magnitude of the force of gravity on each person?
2)What is the magnitude of the buoyant force on each person?
3)How many FULL people can the balloon lift up? (Your answer must be an integer.)

1.The four basic Marketing Mix includes “Product”, “Price”, “Place” and “Promotion”. Service marketing scholars argue that these traditional four Ps are not sufficient for service products to be successful in the market. In addition to four Ps, they identified three additional components, creating seven Ps. Explain seven Ps.
2.Choose a specific service product you are familiar with (e.g., Starbuck’s) and identify its core product and supplementary services.
3. After a service failure, companies consider compensation as part of their service recovery strategies. Discuss the general guideline for compensation.
