Suppose a profit-maximizing firm in a competitive market produces rubber bands. When the market price for rubber bands falls bel

ow the minimum of its average total cost, but still lies above the minimum of average variable cost, in the short run the firm will: a. earn both economic and accounting profits. b. shut down. c. raise the price of its product. d. experience losses but will continue to produce rubber bands.

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

In the given example, a profit-maximizing perfectly competitive firm is producing rubber bands. The average total cost of producing is higher than the price per unit of the product. The firm will be incurring a loss. But the average variable cost is lower than price. This means the price is able to cover variable costs.  

The firm in this situation will continue to produce in the short run, Though in the long run if the price is still lower than the average total cost the firm will exit the market because of incurring losses.

A playground merry-go-round has a mass of 115 kg and a radius of 2.50 m and it is rotating with an angular velocity of 0.520 rev
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

W_f = 2.319 rad/s

Explanation:

For answer this we will use the law of the conservation of the angular momentum.

L_i = L_f

so:

I_mW_m = I_sW_f

where I_m is the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round, W_m is the initial angular velocity of the merry-go-round, I_s is the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round and the child together and W_f is the final angular velocity.

First, we will find the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round using:

I = \frac{1}{2}M_mR^2

I = \frac{1}{2}(115 kg)(2.5m)^2

I = 359.375 kg*m^2

Where M_m is the mass and R is the radio of the merry-go-round

Second, we will change the initial angular velocity to rad/s as:

W = 0.520*2\pi rad/s

W = 3.2672 rad/s

Third, we will find the moment of inertia of both after the collision:

I_s = \frac{1}{2}M_mR^2+mR^2

I_s = \frac{1}{2}(115kg)(2.5m)^2+(23.5kg)(2.5m)^2

I_s = 506.25kg*m^2

Finally we replace all the data:

(359.375)(3.2672) = (506.25)W_f

Solving for W_f:

W_f = 2.319 rad/s

physics A river flows at a speed vr = 5.37 km/hr with respect to the shoreline. A boat needs to go perpendicular to the shorelin
vova2212 [387]

Answer: Vb is the vector  (-5.37m/s,  8.59 m/s), with a module 10.13m/s

then the ratio Vb/Vr = 10.13m/s/5.37m/s = 1.9

Explanation:

We can use the notation (x, y) where the river flows in the x-axis and the pier is on the y-axis.

We have Vr = (5.37m/s, 0m/s)

Now, if the boat wants to move only along the y-axis (perpendicularly to the shore).

The velocity of the boat Vb will be:

Vb = (-c*sin(32). c*cos(32))

Then we should have that:

5.37 m/s - c*sin(32) = 0

c = (5.37/sin(32))m/s = 10.13 m/s

the velocity in the y-axis is:

10.13m/s*cos(32) = 8.59 m/s

So Vb = (-5.37m/s,  8.59 m/s)

the ratio Vb/Vr = 10.13m/s/5.37m/s = 1.9 where i used Vb as the module of the boat's velocity.

How does the location of the outer planets explain their composition and characteristics?
Elena-2011 [213]

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune collectively make up the group known as the jovian planets. The general structures of the jovian planets are opposite those of the terrestrial planets. Rather than having thin atmospheres around relatively large rocky bodies, the jovian planets have relatively small, dense cores surrounded by massive layers of gas. Made almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, these planets do not have solid surfaces.

I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST FOR A QUICK AND GOOD ANSWER PLEASE NO SPAM what are elastic and inelastic distortion?
Montano1993 [528]
As far as I know, elastic distortion (or elastic deformation or temporary distortion) is the case when an object is deformed by virtue of a cause and after the cause is removed, it regains its original shape in a finite amount of time. If it fails to attain its original shape in finite amount of time or takes infinite time it becomes plastic or permanent distortion.

Inelastic materials, simply put, are non elastic materials. They do not show a fixed trend of deformation vs applied force; in fact, they might not deform at all (rigid materials) or the deformation observed is not completely recoverable; on removal of the applied force, the material doesn't return to its original shape, but to a permanent deformed shape. Such materials are called Plastic materials. 

A typical material like steel shows all these forms under different conditions of loading (applied force). For extremely low magnitudes of forces, it is practically rigid. Increasing magnitudes of force show a linear elastic response, while further increase show a non-linear, plastic response, till rupture occurs when the material breaks.
