Document Summary

In 1921, schoenberg discovered something which will assure the supremacy of german music for the next hundred years . Atonal writing came largely intuitively - no law governing the construction of melodies and harmonies, no replacement for the hierarchical operations of tonality. Later, there were conscious attempts to impose order. Schoenberg and webern still required a text to structure their music. Although some contrapuntal devices bring a sense of clarity. Serial principles provide a guarantee that a composition had a degree of harmonic coherence, since the fundamental pattern was always the same. Serialism: method of composition using series of pitches, rhythms, dynamics, timbres, or other musical elements. Provides they composer with suggestions, which are less restrictive than the conventions of diatonic harmony or fugal composition. Schoenberg devised serialism so that a traditional style of composition would again be possible. Schoenberg"s first works used traditional forms (e. g. the baroque dance suite) to show listeners that:

The principle of utility involves maximizing happiness as a desirable outcome of decisions. Although it does not get directly said, there is an inverse intention to minimize the undesirable outcome of disaster. Utilitarian decisions are directed toward outcomesâthat is, the consequences of decisions. The Olympic hostage situation was a high-tension moment, full of dangerous surprises and strategies to deal with the situation that did not work out for the best. Among the strategies was the idea to kill the leader of the terrorists so as to disrupt the terrorist plot and to allow a good outcome in which the hostages would be saved. In the situation it was also entirely possible that a terrible outcome might occur in which all would die. The situation was an emergency. The German legal system might eventually take the terrorists and their leader to trial, but first there was the need to end the hostage situation. The account in our text ends with, âBut it was the lesser of two evils.â As utilitarian ethicists this week, how shall we reason through to the decision of the law enforcement authorities at the 1972 Munich Olympics?

please dont use this answer

In the Munich terrorist situation the police were faced with a difficult situation. Due to the climate of the time everyone could imagine what would happen to the hostages if the terrorist were allowed to leave with them, this ending was not acceptable. The police already knew that the terrorist were willing to kill since they had already killed some of the Olympic team members that resisted. Since negotiations failed and the ambush attempts failed along the way to the final shootout, the police felt that this was truly the final attempt at a rescue.

The German police were not really equipped and trained to handle this hostage situation, but they did what they could do. We have the luxury of questioning how this situation was handled, but back then the police had to make decisions with what information they had and live with the results. Due to this terrorist situation the German police saw the need to establish the anti-terrorism group GSG 9, so that could be a take away from this situation.

Which of the statements regarding this situation are true? Selectall that apply.

1-When one charged sphere is placed inside another the net electricfield outside the larger sphere is always larger than the field dueto the larger sphere alone.

2-If there is a positive point charge present at the center, thefield in all regions is either zero or directed away from thecenter.

3-When one charged sphere is placed inside another the net electricfield outside the larger sphere is always non-zero.

4-It is possible to have no electric field inside the outer sphereand a non-zero electric field outside the outer sphere.

5-If the outer sphere is present the electric field between itsinner radius and its outer radius (inside its solid wall, in otherwords) is always zero.

6-It is not possible to have a non-zero electric field inside theinner sphere and outside the outer sphere, but no electric fieldbetween the inner and outer spheres.

7-For a conducting sphere with a net charge Q, the electric fieldinside the sphere is zero and the electric field outside the sphereis the same as the field from a point charge of charge Q placed atthe center of the sphere.

8-As you move steadily out from the origin in this simulation theelectric field changes smoothly. The field can never jump suddenlyfrom one value to another.

9-If the outer sphere is present the way charge is distributed onthe outer sphere depends only on its charge, and not on the chargeof the point charge and the inner sphere.

Question 7

Raw materials are always purchased from the same vendor. This is an internal control weakness because:

		Quality is substandard from that one vendor.
		That one vendor is slow in shipping the goods.
		The purchasing department should be required to obtain competitive bids on all purchases over a specified amount; which helps control costs.
		There is the potential to violate the Foreign Corrupts Practices Act.

Question 8

In a company that carries a significant amount of inventory, there is no receiving department or receiving report, however, this is not an internal control weakness as there are people who work in the stockroom and manage the inventory.

True

False

Question 9

For a company with lots of merchandise inventory, A receiving department should be established. Personnel in this department should count or weigh all goods received and prepare prenumbered receiving reports. These reports should be signed, dated, and controlled. Copies should be sent to the accounting department, purchasing department, and storeroom.
