“If it has ‘science’ in its name, it ain’t (Minnick).” Those words were said to this writer by the smartest person he ever knew personally, a man with PhDs in Mathematics and Physics, a true scientist. He went on to explain that science, if it is science, can be reduced to mathematics and then can predict. “Science can generate electricity or flatten cities,” he said. The problem, of course, is that whenever one deals with the “soft sciences,” political science or economics (the dismal science) or sociology or history or any of the disciplines that are housed in ...

Abstract

Individuals and business organizations with investment potential or the desire to become investors often find themselves having limited capital to undertake the desired projects. Additionally, most investors are often confused when carrying out analysis to assess the risk of the various portfolio in which they intend to invest their resources. The governments have developmental projects that require more financial resources than their revenue due to budget deficits. Having excess money in the circulation is dangerous to an economy because it results in excess aggregate demand that produces inflationary gaps. As such, the government must regulate money supply to ensure ...

Introduction

The relation between the potential difference, electric current, and resistance are represented in the Ohm Law. The Ohm Law consists in the direct relation between the potential difference and the electric current of a basic circuit, where the resistance is the constant value in the relation. Mathematically speaking the Ohm Law is a first-grade equation where the potential difference is the dependent variable, the electric current the independent variable and the resistance a constant value. With a deep analysis of the circuit, the resistances are components inside the circuit that difficult the path of the electric current through the ...

The Federal Reserve has one of the most unique duties in the world. Tasked with keeping both employment high and inflation low, it is the only central banking authority in the world that performs both functions as its mission. Studies performed by A. Phillips describe the inverse relationship between unemployment and the inflation of real wages. The Federal Reserve and Congress enact policies to counteract the inverse nature of unemployment and inflation. The Fed achieves its goals with manipulation of monetary policy, which is the control of the monetary supply, while Congress controls fiscal policy to help achieve similar ...

Market Structure

In simple terms, market structure refers to the classification of the various types of markets, based on their unique features on how they allocate prices of a given product in the market. The aspect is primarily classified into two, which include perfect and imperfect market.

Human development is a process of providing mechanisms through which people can flourish and attain self-actualization in their lives. The rationale of human development as a process goes beyond focusing on economic development as an indicator of people’s wellbeing. It therefore incorporates other dimensions which are crucial in establishing the extent to which people would describe quality life. Traditionally, most economists have used quantitative indicators such as GDP Per capita as a measure of people’s wellbeing in a particular economy. The reality is however, different because quantitative indicators such as these are limited to assessing economic success ...

BERNOULLI’S EXPERIMENT

ABSTRACT Two fluid properties, the Bernoulli principle and the Venturi effect, were examined and analyzed in this experiment. A venturi meter was used to measure the fluid flow rate, velocity, and pressure of water (the fluid being examined). The results showed that the fluid pressure decreases as the fluid traveled through a smaller cross sectional area. The minimum fluid pressure (in effect, maximum fluid velocity) was observed in the smallest cross sectional area at position D (diameter 16 mm). The decrease in fluid pressure was compensated by an increase in the fluid velocity. With these two measured phenomena, both ...

The ALARA principle is used in industrial radiography to protect workers during the testing of weld seams in a tank or pipeline. (ALARA) or “as low as reasonably achievable” is a phrase used in the United States to denote minimization of exposure to radiation. Workers exposed to radiation can maintain their radiation doses ALARA by reducing the time spent near sources of radiation, increasing their distance from radiation sources and establishing a shielding mechanism between them and radiation sources. A great way of achieving ALARA is to half the exposure time to radiation as this would reduce the radiation ...

Introduction

The law of demand tells us that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. That means if a producer reduces the price the demand for the product will increase and vice versa. But just knowing the inverse relationship is not enough for a business firm. It is more important to know the extent to which the demand changes with the change in price. Thus price elasticity of demand is an important tool to decide upon the appropriate pricing strategy. In this paper we are going to present the concept of price elasticity of demand, how it ...

Introduction

Knowing the market is very important for a firm as it has to base its policies and profit maximizing decisions based on the market characteristics. In a perfectly competitive market the firms follow the price determines by the industry. On the other hand a monopolist sets the price and quantity based on the profit maximizing conditions. The monopolist earns higher profit than the firm under a competitive sitation. In a monopolistic competition the firms have to innovate so that the products can be differentiated from the products of the consumer. The oligopoly form of market is characterized by the ...

Introduction

The strategic planning for the successful operation of a firm pivots on the market structure in which the firm operates. The market structure determines the market power that the firm possesses or can command into. If the market power is low or absent as in case of a competitive market the firm has to follow the industry determined price. But if the market power is high as in the case of a monopoly the firm can earn substantial amount of profit by its pricing strategies. In the previous exercise we had derived the price and output of a firm ...

Introduction

Poverty is the deprivation of basic things like money, food or assets that are essential for a normal life. GDP on the other hand is the goods and services produced within the by a country in a year. It is known that with increase in poverty it leads to reduction in output of a country. This is because essential resources that are vital for production are lacking. It also means that human capital is insufficient and consequently the resources needed to stir growth are used to feed and provide for the poor population. Poverty and unstable GDP are common phenomena in developing ...

1.1 Introduction In typical industrial applications, the machines and equipment involved require high electrical ratings, like high voltages and high currents. Different machineries have varying voltage and current ratings. These ratings should be followed in order that the equipment operates properly whenever needed. However, undesirable conditions, like voltages and currents above the prescribed ratings (usually called as faults), are not totally unavoidable. In these conditions, damages on the machinery might occur which can cause production issues and problems, and may even be hazardous to humans. These conditions can be avoided by integrating protective circuitry within the electrical systems. ...

PART 1

Question 1 If the price elasticity of demand for firm X’s product is -1.75, lowering its price will result in an increase in total revenue. This is because a negative price elasticity of demand implies an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. It indicates that an increase in price leads to a decline in quantity demanded and a decline in price leads to an increase in quantity demanded. In addition, the price elasticity of demand is more than 1 in absolute terms hence a change in price leads to a more than proportionate change in quantity demanded. A 1% decrease in ...

A] In order to define and understand a vector space, it is important to first define and understand a few other related terms. To begin with, a vector is a directed line segment, and its extension to n-dimensions leads to a vector space. The addition operation on two ordered pairs of a set is the ordered pair containing the sum of the respective elements. This is true for ‘n’ number of ordered pairs as well (n-dimensional vector space). Similarly, the scalar product operation on an ordered pair of a set is the ordered pair containing the product of the scalar with the respective elements (“Vector ...
