Answer:

A - elastic since many other fast food items could be considered close substitutes.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is how much the demand of the Big Macs will change due to a 1% change in price. Should the elasticity be greater than 1, the Big Macs will be elastic. Should it be less than 1, the Big Macs are inelastic.  

Demand elasticity is calculated as the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by a percentage change in price.

Since Big Macs are (i) a luxury good, and (ii) have close substitutes (other burgers available at McDonalds and other fast food stores), we will say their elasticity is greater than 1.  

This means that the demand of Big Macs will change due to a 1% increase in price due to the presence of close substitutes.

mezya [45]

Answer:5101.35v

Explanation:

Radius of gold nucleus=7.3×10-15m and a charge of +79e

Q= 79e

e=1.6×10^-19

q= +2e

The nucleus is considered as the point charge where the potential energy between the charges are

U = 1/(4×3.142×Eo)×(qQ)/r

Where r is distance between the charges and the nucleus

r=R+d

V=U/q

U= 1/(4×3.142×Eo)×Q/r

V= 1/(4×3.142×Eo)×Q/(r+d)

9.0×10^9 ×(79×10^-19)/(7.3×10^-15)+(1.5×10^-14)

V= 9.0×10^9 ×(1.264×10^-17)/(2.23×10^-14)

V= 9×10^9×(5.67×10^-14)= 5101.35v

The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is
Molodets [167]

Answer:

50 lb

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'

g'=\frac{g}{6}

We know that weight of an object on Earth is,

w = m\times g

m = \frac{w}{g}

Similarly, weight on Moon will be

w' = m\times g'

w' = \frac{w}{g}\times\frac{g}{6}

w' = \frac{300}{6}

w' = 50

Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.
