Q1) Suppose you are interested in the behaviors of physicians that have high ratings of patient satisfaction. The research goal is to identify the behaviors in the natural clinical settings of these successful physicians so that these behaviors can be built into the curricula of medical preparation programs. The main data were collected by the video recording of five randomly selected physician-patient encounters from 10 physicians who have been rated highly by patients in a reliable satisfaction survey.

In analyzing the recordings, what would you define as the unit for analysis? Why? How many data units (in rough estimates) are you likely to get based on this decision? Does the estimated number of data units seem adequate? Why or why not?

Assume that you reviewed the literature on physician communication skills as a major component of patient satisfaction. Based on this idea, what might be some of the initial codes that you could use to label the data units? How would you justify this set of codes in your research report?

I need to solve this problem of thermodynamics but I don’t know how to begin it, please I need help. The problem is the next: Design a scalding unit for slaughtered chickens to loosen their feathers before they are routed to feather-picking machines with a capacity of 1200 chickens per hour under the following conditions:The unit will be of an immersion type filled with hot water at an average temperature of 53°C at all times. Chicken with an average mass of 2.2 kg and an average temperature of 36°C will be dipped into the tank, held in the water for1.5 min, and taken out by a slow-moving conveyor. The chicken is expected to leave the tank 15 percent heavier as a result of the water that sticks to its surface. The center-to-center distance between chickens in any direction will be at least 30 cm. The tank can be as wide as 3 m and as high as 60 cm. The water is to be circulated through and heated by a natural gas furnace, but the temperature rise of water will not exceed 5°C as it passes through the furnace. The water loss is to be made up by the city water at an average temperature of 16°C. The walls and the floor of the tank are well-insulated. The unit operates 24 h a day and 6 days a week. Assuming reasonable values for the average properties, recommend reasonable values for:a) The mass flow rate of the makeup water that must be supplied to the tank.b) The rate of heat transfer from the water to the chicken, in kW.c) The size of the heating system in kJ/h.d) The operating cost of the scalding unit per month for a unit cost of $1.12/therm of natural gas.

You will prepare and submit a term paper on Facebook Addictions. Your paper should be a minimum of 1250 words in length. People socialize through facebook. They feel connected to the whole world on facebook. It is because of such a strategic design of facebook that hardly anyone would think of spending time on it as a waste of time. Facebook offers people an opportunity to search lost friends the easiest way. It has become more of a necessity than a fashion in the modern technological age and people have started to rely on it not only for casual gossips but also for important business information and business deals. “If you have a business contact who requests to be your Facebook friend, you’re probably in good shape with that particular contact.” (Treadaway and Smith, 2010).

“Facebook, the popular networking site, has 350 million members worldwide who, collectively, spend 10 billion minutes there every day, checking in with friends, writing on people’s electronic walls, clicking through photos and generally keeping pace with the drift of their social world.” (Hafner, 2009).

The addiction to Facebook is not normally viewed as an addiction although it contains all the aspects of addiction. Many lose themselves in it. They waste all their time on it because it interferes with their lives often times putting beside more important things such as good hygiene, paying bills. Children go to such limits that they even let it interfere with their work and school. People get so involved that when they do not have access or can not access Facebook they start to exhibit signs of withdrawal. The feeling arising as a result of such a withdrawal is not very different from that offered by social exclusion. Literature that refers to Facebook as an addiction is expanding beyond horizons. “It is a psychophysiological disorder involving tolerance. withdrawal symptoms. affective disturbances. and interruption of social relationships. The most common one is Facebook Addiction Disorder (FAD).

My question is this: You expect to receive a payment of $600 one year from now. The discount rate is 6% What is the present value of the payment to be received? Suppose the discount rate was 7?, what is the present value of the payment to be received. What will cause the present value of a future payment to decline?

This is what I did but it doesn’t seem correct.PVF = 1/(1 + r)^n

PV = P x PVF = P x 1/(1 + r)^n

Monthly discount rate

Monthly r = 6%/12= 0.005%, n=12

PV = P x PVF = 600 x 1/(1 + 0.005)^12 = 545.14

Present value = $4.62 if PV=P x PVF=600 x 1/(1 + 0.5)^12

PVF = 1/(1 + r)^n

PV = P x PVF = P x 1/(1 + r)^n

Monthly discount rate

Monthly r = 7%/12= 0.006%, n=12

PV = P x PVF = 600 x 1/(1 + 0.6)^12 =

Present value = $2.13

PV = P x PVF = 600 x 1/(1 + 0.006)^12 = 558.4386
