IF THE PRICE OF AN ITEM CHANGES BY 8% AND QUANTITY SUPPLIED CHANGES FROM 600 UNITS TO 660 UNITS, THE PRICE ELASTICITY OF SUPPLY IS
A. 0.80 B. 1.25 ✓ C. 2.00 D. 10.00 The answer to the question is: B. 1.25 The price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of the quantity supplied of a good to a change in its price. It is calculated as…
IF QUANTITY SUPPLIED IS CONSTANT IRRESPECTIVE OF PRICE CHANGES, THE SUPPLY ELASTICITY IS
A. unitary B. infinity C. fairly elastic D. perfectly inelastic ✓ The answer to the question is: D. perfectly inelastic If the quantity supplied remains constant regardless of changes in price, the supply elasticity is considered perfectly inelastic. This means that the quantity supplied…
IF THE QUANTITY OF OXYGEN OCCUPYING 2.76L CONTAINER AT A PRESSURE OF 0.825 ATM AND 300K IS REDUCED BY ONE-HALF, WHAT IS THE PRESSURE EXERTED BY THE REMAINING GAS
A. 1.650atm B. 0.825atm C. 0.413atm ✓ D. 0.275atm The answer to the question is: C. 0.413atm To solve this problem, we can use the ideal gas law equation, which states that PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is…
IF THE QUANTITY DEMANDED OF A COMMODITY INCREASES FROM 20 UNITS TO 30 UNITS WHEN THERE IS AN INCREASE IN PRICE FROM 4.00 DOLLARS TO 5.00 DOLLARS, THE ELASTICITY OF DEMAND IS
The elasticity of demand is a measure of the responsiveness of the quantity demanded of a commodity to a change in its price. It is calculated using the following formula: Elasticity of Demand = Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded /…
A QUANTITY OF WATER AT 0 °C IS HEATED TO 30 °C. FOR EACH DEGREE RISE IN TEMPERATURE, ITS DENSITY WILL
A. rise steadily B. fall steadily ✓ C. fall and then rises D. rise and then falls The answer to the question is: B. fall steadily When a quantity of water at 0 °C is heated to 30 °C, its density will decrease. This…
IT TAKES 4 MINUTES TO BOIL A QUANTITY OF WATER ELECTRICALLY. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO BOIL SAME QUANTITY OF WATER USING THE SAME HEATING COIL BUT WITH THE CURRENT DOUBLED
A. 64 minutes B. 32 minutes C. 8 minutes D. 2 minutes E. 1 minute ✓ The answer to the question is: E. 1 minute To calculate how long it will take to boil the same quantity of water using the same heating coil…
FROM THE PRINCIPLE OF FLOTATION, A BODY SINKS IN A FLUID UNTIL IT DISPLACE A QUANTITY EQUAL TO ITS OWN
A. density B. mass C. weight ✓ D. volume The answer to the question is: C. weight Introduction to the Principle of Flotation The principle of flotation is a fundamental concept in fluid mechanics that deals with the buoyancy of objects when placed in…
WHAT QUANTITY OF SILVER IS DEPOSITED WHEN 96500C OF ELECTRICITY IS PASSED THROUGH A SOLUTION CONTAINING SILVER IONS
To determine the quantity of silver deposited when 96500C of electricity is passed through a solution containing silver ions, we need to consider Faraday’s law of electrolysis. According to this law, the amount of substance deposited or liberated at an…
