QUESTION 1 The demand for the apartments around that particular area will be relatively inelastic. When demand is relatively inelastic‚ a large amount of change in the price will still cause a small amount of change in the quantity. Assume that if there is a large amount of decrease in the price‚ it will only cause a small amount of increase in the quantity because the demand is relatively inelastic. Thus‚ the demand curve will be steeper. The factors that will cause the demand to be relatively

I am going to investigate how the resistance of the wire affects a current flowing through a wire. I know that as resistance changes‚ current changes‚ as Ohm’s law: I = V/R. If one part of an equation changes‚ the equal must be done to the opposite side. To detect how resistance affects current‚ I must first discover what factors affect resistance. These factors are: · Length of the wire if a wire is longer; there are more particles for electrons to move through‚ and therefore more resistance
