She claimed that she was reaching for a bottle of the same soda on a higher shelf, and that a bottle on the bottom shelf violently exploded, without warning. Amy is suing the grocery store and the soda manufacturer for damages and …show more content…
Clearly state how each of these two tenets should be interpreted when considering this situation. Code 10 will be of great importance. Code ten states that the officer should never tolerate harassment which is what the other attorney was trying to do. In other terms, Dan should not let the soda company as well as the grocery store owner, lawyers harass him with words through twisting of facts. Instead he should use his skills and expertise and defend the victim. Code two will also be very effective in this case. The code states that he should provide advisory services to the clients and consider further disclosure if warranted. b) How would you recommend Dan respond? Specifically state the action you recommend, and justify your response, drawing guidance from the ethical tenets which you identified above. From the scenario and the codes and ethics of his work, Dan should state the facts that the explosion is the one that caused the glass to fall and break down hence causing the injury to the victim foot. The breaking was spontaneous. 2) During an oil refinery startup, it is discovered that a drain valve has become blocked on a large tank that is meant to hold a toxic and highly flammable solvent. The tank was left partially filled with water after cleaning, and a large quantity of solvent was charged into the tank before the water was

Jane Doe served the hot tea in a paper “hot cup”, which was placed in another slightly shorter and wider clear plastic cup. Jane Doe wedged the condiments (sugar and creamer) between the two cups. Jane Doe did not offer any assistance to the Plaintiff, and the other passengers were occupied with their own beverages, unable to assist the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff spilt extremely hot water in her groin and buttocks area as a result of this situation.
Provide your responses in grammatically correct and complete sentence structure; your instructor has discretion to withhold up to 1 point of credit per question -- for a total of up to 4 points -- for failure to do so.
Directions: Answer each question in a paragraph—be sure to give specific details and examples. Remember that each of these questions has multiple parts to it. You must type your responses out and hand it to me by the end of our class period.
In the early hours of August 17, 1975, a tragic disaster occurred on the Gulf Oil refinery in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This horrific disaster took the lives of eight firefighters, and potentially could have taken more lives if it wasn’t for the help of many surrounding fire stations. The cause of the fire was the overfilling of Tank 231. While no crude oil escaped from the tank as a result of being overfilled, large quantities of hydrocarbon vapors were trapped above the surface of the tank’s crude oil. As the quantity of crude oil increased, these hydrocarbon vapors were forced out of the tank’s vents and into the area of the No.4 Boiler House where the initial flash occurred. The overfilling of the tank
After reading the course resources, answer questions 1-10. (10 points each) Please take time to answer each question completely.
Section A: Answer all questions. Total 42 points – each question in this section carries 3.5 points. Write the responses to ALL questions in your answer sheet.
Liebeck was riding as a passenger in her grandson’s car. After receiving her order, he pulled up and stopped so Liebeck could put cream and sugar in her coffee. She placed the Styrofoam coffee between her knees because there was no cup-holder and tried to remove the lid. However, the coffee spilled onto her and she received third-degree burns on her buttocks, genital, groin, and inner thighs. She was hospitalized for eight days and had skin grafts and debridement treatments. Liebeck was also disabled for two years after the accident and permanently scarred. Her daughter took off of work to help take Stella to and from the hospital. She also lost around twenty percent of her bodyweight following the incident.
Type the answers to the assignment's questions. Use complete sentences unless the question says otherwise. You will have more than one day to complete an assignment. At the end of each day, be sure to save your progress.
To insure you obtain the best possible grade, be sure to research each question as completely as possible. Try to answer these questions as if you are providing information to an individual who knows nothing about each topic. Explain your answers in detail; remember, the more complete your answer is the better your grade will be.
Some of the items can be answered briefly. However, most require a lengthier response, using the principles and considerations in evaluating tests that have been discussed in your text and in class.
Safety glass is an amazing invention, one that has saved many lives. Glass is usually very brittle as a result of its chemical properties, such that it is easily cracked and broken, often times leading to very sharp edges. Safety glass fixes this problem by adding in compression on the outside layer of glass, meaning any force that attempts to break it must overcome the compressive force in addition to the glasses usual strength. However, in order to create this compression, there must be tensile (the opposite of compression) force on the interior of the glass because of the laws of physics. So whenever there is enough damage to reach this tensile area, the glass will explode, with all the unbalanced forces causing the glass to disintegrate
I first noticed the crack in the glass table near the end of October. I remember sitting at the table eating my dinner. I glanced down and saw a fine crack, about two inches long, near the center of the table. It confused me because it was thin yet fat, like a caterpillar The chandelier above caused the crack to glisten, and I was greatly perturbed. Ever since that cursed autumn night, my mind never forsook the mystery in the glass.
After graduating from the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering with a degree in computer engineering, I was offered a job at Company X, a recreational aircraft manufacture. Several years later, I was made the head of a team tasked with designing the code for the glass cockpit of a new airplane that Company X plans to produce.
