Answer:

Option A is correct.

(The faster object encounters more resistance)

Explanation:

Option A is correct. (The faster object encounters more resistance)

Air resistance depends on various factors:

  • Speed of the object
  • Cross-sectional area of the object
  • Shape of the object

Formula:

F=\frac{1}{2}C_d\rho A v^{2}

As the speed of the object increases the amount of Air resistance/drag increases on the object, as the above formula shows direct relation between Air resistance/drag and velocity i.e F ∝ v^2.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

B. Marginal cost equals long-run average total cost.

Explanation:

The zero profit condition implies that entry continues until all firms are producing at minimum long run average total cost. Since the marginal cost curve cuts the long run average total cost curve at its minimum point, marginal cost and long run average total cost must be equal in long run equilibrium.
