The consumer price index or CPI is a more direct measure than per capita GDP of the standard of living in a country. It is based on the overall cost of a fixed basket of goods and services bought by a typical consumer‚ relative to price of the same basket in some base year. By including a broad range of thousands of goods and services with the fixed basket‚ the CPI can obtain an accurate estimate of the cost of living. It is important to remember that the CPI is not a dollar value like GDP‚ but instead

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

Question 1: What are the manufacturer’s dollar sales of canned dog food sold through supermarkets in the Boston Market? Answer: $12‚000‚000 Rationale: Supermarket sales of dog food will total $5 billion (at manufacturers’ prices) in 2011 (Pg. 115). Canned dog food accounts for 20% of dollar share total dog food (Exhibit 1). Additionally‚ the Boston Market represents 1.2% of both the U.S. and dog populations‚ since dog and human populations are highly correlated (Pg. 115). By multiplying

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
