You have explored the architecture of Allen Bradley PLCs and the core instructions that these PLCs have including the basic relay instructions, latch and unlatch instructions, one shots, timers, and counters. In this discussion, you will focus on timers how Allen Bradley PLCs and Siemens PLCs use timer instructions and the ample differences in these two PLCs implement timers.    Explain Timers as a logical device. How does Studio 5000 implement Timers as a PLC instruction? What are the different types of Timers in Studio 5000? Explain their input and output signals.

What steps did you take to ensure that each balloon acquired the same amount of charge?

Maximum Score: 12

1. [1] Attach a picture of your experimental setup.
2. [2] Draw a free body diagram of the balloons in your experiment. Ensure that all relevant

parameters are labelled.
3. [2] By analyzing your free body diagram, and using Eqs. (1) and (2) in the lab description,

determine a “working equation” for this experiment. In other words, your goal in this
experiment is to determine defined in Eq. (2), and therefore you need to work out an equation
that will relate to parameters you can measure in your experiment.

4. [1] What steps did you take to ensure that each balloon acquired the same amount of charge?
5. [2] List the quantities you measured in your experiment and their values. The variables chosen

should match the labelling in your free body diagram.
6. [1] Show a calculation of using the equation you determined in Q3.
7. [3] Comment on your value of . Is your value surprising, unsurprising? Does it seem reasonable

upon further consideration? How could you verify if your result is reasonable? What do you
think are the biggest sources of uncertainty in your measurement? How would you improve the
experiment if you did it again?

we have studied the unique characteristics of  Andragogy. You have learned that adult learners have academic needs that  must be met by instructors.  For your assignment this week, create a  Word document, PowerPoint, or Prezi that: explains your understanding of andragogy;   includes specific examples of how you will attend to the unique needs of adult learners in your classroom; and  describes how you will build community by attending to the following: warm-ups  or ice breakers you might use the first days or weeks of class or  training. Explain each warm-up or ice breaker in detail other steps you will take to help build a sense of community in your classroom explanations about why it is important to promote community among learners

  Healthcare reform is a constantly discussed topic in the U.S. healthcare system. Various influences, including political, societal, and real-time events (think COVID-19) all help to shape the discussion surrounding reform as it relates to the U.S. healthcare system. This link contains a tracker of all pending or introduced reform legislation currently. Among the biggest talking points relating to the healthcare reform discussion over the past decade has been the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and whether it should remain as it is, be improved upon, or be dismantled and a new system put in its place. Review the most current attempt at modifications to the ACA in this link. Do you feel that the ACA should be left alone as it is, be kept in place and improved upon, or be removed completely and a new set of legislation put in its place? Discuss your reasoning for your conclusion, and why or how it can be accomplished.

What did you learn about diversity and inclusion — how does this impact leadership?

Diversity Activity:

For this activity, you will consider your knowledge and experiences on diversity, equity and inclusion. This will be a way for you to understand where you are — right now. Once you have defined this and considered what you know, time will be spent considering other perspectives through a video and personal conversation. This activity is intended to broaden your perspective of diversity, equity and inclusion and underscore the importance of it at the individual level as well as the organizational level. Follow the steps of this assignment in the order they are presented to you. Be intentional in your efforts as a way to not only be successful on this assignment but also as a person of society.
 
1. 
Define diversity – As an international student what does it mean to you and where do you fall on being aware of diversity and engaging an inclusive network? (Be HONEST with yourself about this….) 

· Draft your definition in a Word document and save it — you will continue adding to this document and you will submit it at the end.
2. 
Watch this short video (Ted Talk)

· Take notes on this video — what is she presenting that is new to you or maybe emphasizes a thought or experience you have already had at this point? You should have notes from this video.

3. What did you learn about diversity and inclusion — how does this impact leadership?
· Look at your definition and personal experiences. Think about what you read in the textbook and what you have learned from this video.
4. Talk to someone about diversity, equity and inclusion.
· Meet with someone in a class or at work. This could also be someone on a team or in a student organization that you don’t know very well. Have a conversation with them and learn more about their experiences, background, interests and thoughts on diversity. This will help you build a stronger understanding for the importance of respecting and appreciating different perspectives. Write down your thoughts on this conversation and what you talked about.
 
5.  Reflect on your initial definition, the video, your conversation from step 4, and what you read in the textbook and rewrite your definition of diversity. What does it mean to be inclusive? How much has your perspective changed or developed from this activity and the discovery of knowledge from the module?
· You should have the ability to extend your original definition and think about how you view diversity, equity, and inclusion differently. What can you do to have an impact on society or the organization you will work in someday soon?
