The US has recently reached the lowest unemployment rate： 4.5%. In this article‚ the author provided different aspects of US’s low unemployment rate and the result of such a low unemployment rate. Comparing to the unemployment rate (10%) after 2008’s recession‚ US is now reaching a relatively low unemployment rate. A low unemployment rate is one of the four macroeconomic objectives that economists always want their nations to achieve. Unemployment is simply defined as the state of being out of

single corporate hurdle rate to evaluate its investment decisions in its products and systems segment as well as its telecommunications segment. Using only one hurdle rate doesn’t take into account the risk that the company faces within each segment. Investors demand higher returns for riskier investments. Victor Yossarian is concerned about the low returns for the high risk in the products and systems segment‚ this is why he wants to abandon this segment. Using two hurdle rates adjusts for the risk

LCT and UCT causes the endotherm’s metabolic rate to increase. We can hypothesize that when the temperature falls below the LCT or above the UCT‚ the percent O2 consumption will increase‚ and thus‚ the metabolic rate. The hypothesis was supported by the result received in this lab. The thermal neutral zone (TNZ) of an endotherm is its temperature tolerance range. For the mouse‚ this is about room temperature. It is seen that in the TNZ‚ the metabolic rate decreases from about 1.75 to 1 (Fig 1). During

relationship between the nominal income per capita and the crime rate? Does the unemployment rate have any impact on the number of crimes? As one can notice‚ there are numerous economic and behavioural theories underlying the subject chosen. In fact‚ assuming the number of police agents is correlated to the number of property crimes‚ it is logical to think that a higher number of police agents will enhance security and help reducing the crime rates. However‚ a relatively large number of police agents can

Exploring Rates‚ Equilibrium‚ and Organic Chemistry Brandon Sher SCH 4U For: Ms. Merhai Due date: June 1st‚2013 Introduction: Organic chemistry. Two quantities one could measure with the presence of organic chemicals are chemical equilibrium and rate of reaction. Chemical equilibrium is the ratio between the forward and reverse process of a reaction. This is represented by the equation: K = products / reactants. When a reaction has reached equilibrium‚ the

Change in respiratory rate during exercise Aim: To record and investigate how the breathing rate varies for the duration of light and heavy exercise. Introduction: When an individual exercises‚ the muscles being used needs extra energy from oxygen. The lungs pump oxygen to the heart‚ and then the heart pumps the oxygenated blood through the blood to the particular muscle that is working. The human body has a series of organs working together‚ which is named the respiration system. The organs involved

Unlike Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) Body Mass Index (BMI) is determined by an individual’s height and body weight. It is widely used to determine whether the individual belongs to a healthy weight group. In simpler terms body mass index is the value that represents the weight status of human body in relation of the amount of fat present in it. Similar to Basal Metabolic Rate now it is also possible to easily calculate body mass index using BMI calculator for men and women. Similar to BMR calculator
