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

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
klasskru [66]

Answer:

d) The speed of the astronaut

Explanation:

The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.

Now let us understand why;

  • Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
  • The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
  • Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
  • For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.

Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.

The sensor in the torso of a crash test dummy records the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the dummy.If the du
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions

As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.

So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors

so we can say

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}

here given that

F_1 = 130.0 N

F_2 = 4500.0 N

now we will plug in all data in the above equation

F_{net} = \sqrt{4500^2 + 130^}

F_{net} = 4501.9 N

so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor
