a) By examining the effective potential energy (8.32) find the radius at which a planet (or comet) with angular momentum can orbit the sun in a circular orbit with fixed radius. [Look at dUeff I dr 1 (b) Show that this circular orbit is stable, in the sense that a small radial nudge will cause only s

Assume the United States is an importer of televisions and there are no trade restrictions. U.S. consumers buy 1 million televisions per year, of which 400,000 are produced domestically and 600,000 are imported. a. Suppose that a technological advance among Japanese television manufacturers causes th

Been to the movies? An opinion poll calls 2000 ran domly chosen residential telephone numbers, then asks to speak with an adult member of the household. The interviewer asks, How many movies have you watched in a movie theater in the past 12 months? In all, 1131 people responded. The researchers used

Urban Economics 8
Migration to Portland In the last several months, the number of cars driving in Portland with Washington State license plates has increased dramatically. Suppose this refl ects migration from Seattle to Portland. Use two utility curves, one for Portland and a second for Seattle, to represent this mig

College Algebra and Calculus: An Applied Approach 2
Complementary and Substitute Products In Exercises 63 and 64, determine whether the demand functions describe complementary or substitute product relationships. Using the notation of Example 4, let \(x_1) and \(x_2\) be the demands for two products whose prices are \(p_1\) and \(p_2\), respectively.
