Answer:

D: the company can then profit from their research without competition.

Explanation:

 A patent is an <em>exclusive right</em> issued by the government to a company, which means that only this company with the patent has the privilege to exploit the invention commercially, and, in the case of any other company intends to make, use, sell, import or export, or  have any purpose commercially relating to the invention, it is only be possible if the patent's owner consents.

Technological improvements and reduced equipment costs have made converting solar energy directly into electricity far more cost
Natali [406]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Technological improvements and reduced equipment costs have made converting solar energy directly into electricity far more cost-efficient in the last decade. However, the threshold of economic viability for solar power (that is, the price per barrel to which oil would have to rise in order for new solar power plants to be more economical than new oil-fired power plants) is unchanged at thirty-five dollars.  Which of the following, if true, does most to help explain why the increased cost-efficiency of solar power has not decreased its threshold of economic viability?

(A) The cost of oil has fallen dramatically.  (B) The reduction in the cost of solar-power equipment has occurred despite increased raw material costs for that equipment.  (C) Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants.  (D) Most electricity is generated by coal-fired or nuclear, rather than oil-fired, power plants.  (E) When the price of oil increases, reserves of oil not previously worth exploiting become economically viable."

Answer:

(C) Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants.

Explanation:

Economic viability is able to reveal the degree of acceptance of consumers in relation to a specific product. This viability is important to understand how the product will be received in the market and how profitable or not it can be for those who produce it.

Economic viability is usually greater when the cost and benefit ratio of the product or service is favorable, however this is not always the case.

Regarding the use of solar energy, although technological changes have made the installation and equipment of this type of energy more cost-effective, these technological changes have also increased the efficiency of oil plants. As a result, the economic viability of solar energy has declined.

topjm [15]
I belieev the answer is: <span>the oncoming car looks like its not moving

When the car look like its not moving from the perspective of other driver, it is most likely that the car is run at a very low speed.
In this situation, we can conclude that it is safe to make the pass because that car wouldn't achieve enough acceleration to hit us even if the driver somehow step the gas all the way in.</span>
