Answer:
<u><em></em></u>
Explanation:
By definition the<em> atomic number </em>of an element is the<em> number of protons.</em>
The protons are the positevely charged particles in the nucleus of the atom.
The atomic number of an element is what uniquely identifies it. There are 118 known elements and all of them are represented in the periodic table. Then, there are 118 different atomic numbers.
The elements are arranged in the periodic table in increasing order ot atomic number.
For instance:
- The element with <em>atomic number</em> 1 is hydrogen (H). It is the first element in the periodic table, located in the upper left corner of the table. It has one <em>proton</em>. NONE other element has just one proton.
- The element with <em>atomic number</em> 2 is helium (He). It has two <em>protons</em>, is located at the upper right corner of the periodic table and NONE other element has just two protons.
- The element with <em>atomic number</em> 118 is Oganesson (Og). It is the last element in the periodic table. It is located in the bottom right corner of the periodic table. It has 118 <em>protons</em> and NONE other element has atomic number 118.
Answer:
A. National-security argument
Explanation:
The National-security argument is also known as the National-defense argument. The argument proposes the imposition of high tariffs on locally manufactured goods so that the country would not be dependent on other countries for those goods in the event of war. For example, if a country is dependent on other counties for the production of food, then it would be in great danger in the advent of war. Tires that are also used to prepare weapons should be sourced within a country so that in the advent of war, the country would not be dependent on others.
This is the argument employed by the congresswoman who sought the imposition of a tariff on tires so that the United States would not be dependent on other foreign countries during a war.
Answer:
New price (P1) = $72.88
Explanation:
Given:
Risk-free rate of interest (Rf) = 5%
Expected rate of market return (Rm) = 17%
Old price (P0) = $64
Dividend (D) = $2
Beta (β) = 1.0
New price (P1) = ?
Computation of expected rate on return:
Expected rate on return (r) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(17% - 5%)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 1.0(12%)
Expected rate on return (r) = 5% + 12%
Expected rate on return (r) = 17%
Computation:
Expected rate on return (r) = (D + P1 - P0) / P0
17% = ($2 + P1 - $64) / $64
0.17 = (2 + P1 - $64) / $64
10.88 = P1 - $62
New price (P1) = $72.88
Municipal bonds are debt obligations issued by states, cities, counties and other governmental entities.
Answer:
Total FV= $29,335.25
Explanation:
<u>First, we need to calculate the future value of the initial investment ($2,500) using the following formula:</u>
FV= PV*(1 + i)^n
PV= $2,500
i= 0.0075
n=10*12= 120 months
FV= 2,500*(1.0075^120)
FV= $6,128.39
<u>Now, the future value of the $1,500 annual deposit:</u>
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
We need to determine the effective annual rate:
Effective annual rate= (1.0075^12) - 1= 0.0938
FV= {1,500*[(1.0938^10) - 1]} / 0.0938
FV= $23,206.86
Total FV= $29,335.25
