When describing voltage, current, and resistance, a common analogy is a water tank. In this analogy, charge is represented by the water amount, voltage is represented by the water pressure, and current is represented by the water flow.

What is Elasticity? (best answer will get marked brainliest)
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

In economics, elasticity is the measurement of the percentage change of one economic variable in response to a change in another.

An elastic variable (with an absolute elasticity value greater than 1) is one which responds more than proportionally to changes in other variables. In contrast, an inelastic variable (with an absolute elasticity value less than 1) is one which changes less than proportionally in response to changes in other variables. A variable can have different values of its elasticity at different starting points: for example, the quantity of a good supplied by producers might be elastic at low prices but inelastic at higher prices, so that a rise from an initially low price might bring on a more-than-proportionate increase in quantity supplied while a rise from an initially high price might bring on a less-than-proportionate rise in quantity supplied.

Elasticity can be quantified as the ratio of the percentage change in one variable to the percentage change in another variable, when the latter variable has a causal influence on the former. A more precise definition is given in terms of differential calculus. It is a tool for measuring the responsiveness of one variable to changes in another, causative variable. Elasticity has the advantage of being a unitless ratio, independent of the type of quantities being varied. Frequently used elasticities include price elasticity of demand, price elasticity of supply, income elasticity of demand, elasticity of substitution between factors of production and elasticity of intertemporal substitution.

Elasticity is one of the most important concepts in neoclassical economic theory. It is useful in understanding the incidence of indirect taxation, marginal concepts as they relate to the theory of the firm, and distribution of wealth and different types of goods as they relate to the theory of consumer choice. Elasticity is also crucially important in any discussion of welfare distribution, in particular consumer surplus, producer surplus, or government surplus.

In empirical work an elasticity is the estimated coefficient in a linear regression equation where both the dependent variable and the independent variable are in natural logs. Elasticity is a popular tool among empiricists because it is independent of units and thus simplifies data analysis.

A major study of the price elasticity of supply and the price elasticity of demand for US products was undertaken by Joshua Levy and Trevor Pollock in the late 1960s..

A pitcher releases a fastball that moves toward home plate.
Vsevolod [243]

The two additional forces that act on the ball as it travels between the pitcher and the home plate are air resistance and gravity.

<h3>What are the forces that affect object in motion;</h3>
  • Air resistance: this is the force that oppose the motion of an object in air due to frictional force
  • Gravity: this is the force due to weight of the object and acts downwards.

The two additional forces that act on the ball as it travels between the pitcher and the home plate include:

  1. Air resistance and
  2. Gravitational force  

<h3>How the forces affect the motion of the ball</h3>
  • Air resistance oppose the motion of the ball as it travels in air.
  • Gravity is the force due to weight of the ball and acts downwards.
