Answer:

c. above the point of unit elasticity.

Explanation:

The elastic portion of the downward-sloping straight-line demand curve lies above the point of unit elasticity. Supply and demand are fundamental concept in economics. The demand curve shows how much of a good people will want at a different prices. The demands curves illustrates the intuition why people purchase a good for a lower price. For the demand curve, the price is always shown on the vertical axis and the demand curve is shown on the horizontal axis. Thus , the quantity demanded increases as the price gets lower. However, the price elasticity of the demand curve varies along the demand curve. This is because there is a key distinction between the gradient and the elasticity. The gradient which is the slope of the line is always the same in the demand curve but elasticity of the demand changes in the percentage of the quantity demand. Therefore, elasticity will vary along the downward-sloping straight - line demand curve. So,  in a downward-sloping straight-line demand curve, the elastic portion is usually above the  point of unit elasticity

Answer:

a) variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force

b) W = Em_{f} -Em₀ ,  c) he conservation of mechanical energy

Explanation:

a) In an analysis of this problem we can use the energy law, where at the moment the mechanical energy is started it is totally potential, and at the lowest point it is totally kinetic, we can suppose two possibilities, that the friction is zero and therefore by equalizing the energy we set the velocity at the lowest point.

 Another case is if the friction is different from zero and in this case the variation of the energy is equal to the work of the friction force, in value it will be lower than in the calculations.

b) the calluses that he would use are to hinder the worker's friction force and energy

          W = Em_{f} -Em₀

          N d = ½ m v² - m g (y₂-y₁)

          y₂-y₁ = 35 -10 = 25m

c) if there is no friction, the physical principle is the conservation of mechanical energy

 If there is friction, the principle is that the non-conservative work is equal to the variation of the energy

Why are all the​ noncurrent-carrying metal parts bonded together in a wiring​ system?
Yuliya22 [10]

Explanation:

This process is called Bonding and it is done to provide low resistance path to ground.

"Bonding — a low impedance direction achieved by permanently connecting all non-current-carrying metal parts to maintain electrical stability and to be able to conduct any current that is likely to be put on it safely.
