Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of demand for a product or service to a unit change in price. The demand for a product is said to be elastic when a change in price has a relatively large effect on the demand for the product, unitary when there is a percentage change in price brings about an equal percentage change in the demand for the product, and inelastic when a change in the price of a product brings about a smaller change in the demand for the product.

<em>In the case of the DVD rentals, a 10% increase in price brought about only a 5% drop in demand. Hence, the demand for DVD rentals is said to be inelastic because a change in the price brought about a smaller change in the demand for DVD rentals.</em>

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to speed 6.6 m/s in 6.5 s .Find the distance the car travel during this time .​
kirill [66]

Answer:

<em>The distance the car traveled is 21.45 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It occurs when an object changes its velocity at the same rate thus the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]

Where:

a   = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf  = final speed

t    = time

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]

Solving [1] for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Substituting the given data vo=0, vf=6.6 m/s, t=6.5 s:

\displaystyle a=\frac{6.6-0}{6.5}

a = 1.015\ m/s^2

The distance is now calculated with [2]:

\displaystyle x=0*6.5+\frac{1.015*6.5^2}{2}

x = 21.45 m

The distance the car traveled is 21.45 m

Why are eight electrons (four pairs) surrounding each non-hydrogen atom the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecule
rodikova [14]

Eight electrons surrounding each non-hydrogen atom is the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecules because it is needed to achieve an octet structure and is necessary to fill both the s and p subshells of electrons.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This is the type of bonding which involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of an element.

This is done to achieve an octet configuration thereby making them stable and less reactive thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

A motorbike reaches a speed of 20 m/s over 60m, whilst
Fynjy0 [20]

Initial speed = 2√10 m/s

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Linear motion consists of 2: constant velocity motion with constant velocity and uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration  

An equation of uniformly accelerated motion  

V = vo + at  

Vt² = vo² + 2a (x-xo)  

x = distance on t  

vo / vi = initial speed  

vt / vf = speed on t / final speed  

a = acceleration  

vf=20 m/s

d = 60 m

a = 3 m/s²

\tt vf^2=vi^2+2.ad\\\\20^2=vi^2+2\times 3\times 60\\\\400=vi^2+360\\\\40=vi^2\\\\vi=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}~m/s

When a force is acting at axis of rotation,why torque is zero?
Vikki [24]

Explanation:

see, torque=force × perpendicular distance

...that perpendicular distance is between axis of rotation and the point where force acts... so in above's case perpendicular distance is zero... so the torque is zero!

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N
