Answer:
c) thermal pollution
Explanation:
aka heat pollution, occurs when heat released into water or air produces undesirable effects.
1 and 3 are correct, this is due to the fact that modern technology is constantly growing and other developed nations are feeling threatened or inferior when another developed nation grows further ahead. National security has also grown global, just the threat of a foreign country developing nuclear capability is enough for another country to launch missle strikes or other acts in order to quell the threat of another nuclear capable country. 2 is not correct because industrial strategies are being shared throughout the world constantly and the safety of a country no longer stands by their standing army or navy, but by the threat of nuclear capability or a possibility of retaliation through explosive nature. Even today, most wars are done through the army holding down a line, and the navy/airforce launching long ranged missile attacks of various nature.
Answer: 1.9%
Explanation:
First derive the Market return as this is needed in the Capital Asset Pricing Model by using the same model:
Required return = Risk free rate + Beta * ( market return - Risk free rate)
Using stock Y:
12.4% = Risk free rate + 1 * (market return - Risk free rate)
12.4% = Rf + market return - Rf
Market return = 12.4%
Use this to calculate the Risk free rate:
Stock Z:
8.2% = Rf + 0.6 * (12.4% - Rf)
8.2% = Rf + 7.44% - 0.6Rf
Rf - 0.6Rf = 8.2% - 7.44%
0.4Rf = 0.76%
Rf = 0.76% / 0.4
= 1.9%
