Think about what you have read and seen in the news on globalization. Consider the fact that the clothing we wear, the cars that we drive, the cell phones we use to communicate and the computers we use to work, are each likely to have been manufactured in whole or in part in different parts of the world. While there are still companies and firms that maintain local and national borders, it is almost unheard of in the 21st century that an industry does not maintain an international strategic position.
From an executive's position, identify and explain at least three challenges and opportunities that might face an international executive over the next five years. Provide possible solutions of how the executive might address these issues in order for their firm to maintain a competitive advantage.
Prepare a 4-6 page paper that describes the impact of globalization on U.S. businesses. In your analysis, please include information about the impact of at least four economic drivers that might impact globalization.

Demonstrate the law of corresponding states
: Demonstrate the law of corresponding states by writing the van der waals equation in terms of the reduced variables. Calculate the compressibility factor for a van der waals gas at its critical point and compare the result with the values obtained fo..

Determine the force exerted on bolts due to the water flow
: Water flowing through a 10-cm-diameter water pipe at a rate of 0.1 m3/s. Now a diffuser with an outlet diameter of 20 cm is bolted to the pipe in order to slow down water. The inlet side of the pipe is part of a continuous piping system (so that th..

Balanced by counterweight equidistant from the fulcrum
: The weight of a water tank open to the atmosphere is balanced by a counterweight equidistant from the fulcrum. There is a 4-cm hole at the bottom of the tank, and water level in the tank is maintained constant at 50 cm by water entering the tank hori..

Constant specific heat ratio at the average temperature
: Air undergoes an isentropic process from P_1 = 100 kPA and T_1 = 300 K to a final state where the temperature is 700 K. Assuming an ideal gas, find P_2 using both the ideal gas tables and assuming a constant specific heat ratio at the average tempera..

Well-insulated heat exchanger is used to heat water
: A well-insulated heat exchanger is used to heat water (cp = 4.18 KJ/kg*K) from 300 K to 90°C with a mass flow rate of 3 kg/s. Heat is supplied by hot oil (cp = 2.3 KJ/kg*K) that enters the heat exchanger at 200°C with a mass flow rate of 15 kg/s.

Steam turbine operates at steady state with inlet conditions
: Steam leaves the turbine at a pressure of 1 bar. The turbine is adiabatic and kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. If the isentropic turbine efficiency is 75%, determine the work per unit mass flow in KJ/kg, and plot on an h-s diagram..
