objective of the CNX Midcap Index is to capture the movement and be a benchmark of the midcap segment of the market. Methodology: The CNX Midcap Index is computed using free float market capitalization method with base date of Jan 01‚ 2003 and base value of 1000‚ wherein the level of the index reflects the total free float market value of all the stocks in the index relative to particular base market capitalization value. The method also takes into account constituent changes in the index and importantly

Introduction: Stock index is very much important leading indicator which can be used for several purposes. It can be used as a benchmark to judge the performance of professional money managers. It can be used to facilitate the establishment and maintenance of several types of index fund and exchange traded fund (ETF). Securities analysts‚ portfolio managers‚ and academicians doing research use stock market indexes to examine the factors that influence aggregate security price movements and to

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

Objective The objective of this experiment is to understand reflection and refraction and how they vary with different matters. At the end of this experiment‚ you will be able to: Determine index of refraction of various solutions Recognize the passage of refracted beams though different medium Understand the concept of Snell’s Law Understand how the speed of electromagnetic waves in different matters are related Determine the critical angle for total internal reflection Materials 550

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
