    CPI (Consumer price index) A consumer price index (CPI) measures changes in the price level of consumer goods and services purchased by households. The CPI is a statistical estimate constructed using the prices of a sample of representative items whose prices are collected periodically. GDP deflator In economics‚ the GDP deflator (implicit price deflator for GDP) is a measure of the level of prices of all new‚ domestically produced‚ final goods and services in an economy. GDP stands for gross

    The refractive index Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find the refractive index of a glass prism. In this experiment‚ the independent variable is the angle of incidence‚ and the dependent variable is the angle of refraction. Theory: Snell’s law relates the angle of incidence and refraction to the ratio of the velocity of the wave in the different media. The formula for Snell’s law is the following: Sin isinr = v1v2 = n Where i is the angle of incidence‚ r is the angle of refraction

    OVERVIEW INDEX NUMBERS compare figures which show changes in a given variable. The most common variables used in index numbers are price and quantity. By getting the difference of the index numbers‚ we are able to determine the relative or percent change in the price or quantity of a commodity between two periods of time or two localities. Among the more commonly used index numbers are the consumer price index‚ retail price index‚ wholesale price index‚ and the cost-of-living index. DEFINITION

    wavelength of light. Because the velocity of light in air is always greater than that through a liquid‚ the refractive index is a number greater than 1; for example‚ hexane n20D 1.3751. The superscript 20 indicates that the measurement was made at 20 oC‚ and the subscript D refers to the yellow D-line of a sodium vapor lamp‚ light with a wavelength of 589 nm. The measurement is made with a refractometer using a few drops of liquid. Compensation is made within the instrument for the fact that white

    The index of dissimilarity The index of dissimilarity measures the evenness of two racial groups distributed across an area in relation to a larger area. The scale ranges from zero‚ complete integration‚ to one‚ complete segregation. The index can be used with the analysis of racial segregation in trends dealing with socioeconomic class‚ immigration‚ nativity‚ and residence. Generally‚ without immigration‚ the dissimilarity index between two races decreases as time goes on. This trend is most noticeable
