Answer: Firms will exit the market, causing price to rise until losses are eliminated
Explanation:
When there is a decrease in demand in a Perfectly Competitive Market, firms will have to start producing at a lower Quantity to manage their Marginal cost. This leads to Economic losses on their part in the short run.
In the long run however, should the situation remain the same, the new price would be less than their Average Cost which would deepen Economic losses. Firms would respond by exiting the market in the long run.
As the firms exit, the supply curve shifts left as supply drops. This drop in supply leads to a price rise. The exits will continue until enough firms leave that the market's remaining firms will stop suffering economic losses.
Answer:
The correct answer is inertia.
Explanation:
Inertia is called in physics the resistance that bodies oppose to modify their state of motion or stillness, either to alter their speed, their course or to stop; although the term also applies to the modifications of your physical state.
A body, thus, requires a force that overcomes inertia to alter its trajectory, which would otherwise adhere to the laws of uniform rectilinear motion, or to initiate a movement, otherwise it would remain at rest. This, of course, considering that there is no rest or rectilinear and uniform movement in the universe, except based on a reference (observation) system. That is why it is preferred to speak of "relative rest."
