This paper aimed to look at a bunch of different factor’s effectiveness in decreasing the amount and severity of concussions‚ thereby decreasing the risk of developing CTE. The first research question proposed was to look how competent helmets are at preventing concussions from occurring and preventing the development of CTE. Results show that helmets are very

Prior to the lab series‚ it was expected that the positive control would present a decreasing percentage of immobile cells‚ and the negative control would present an increasing percentage of immobile cells. The experimental groups‚ testing the hypothesis‚ was inferred to show a constant number of immobile cells‚ after the 60-minute light

THE LAWS OF RETURN TO SCALE The laws of return to scale explain the behavior of output in response to a proportional and simultaneous change in input. Increase in inputs proportionately and simultaneously is in fact expansion of the scale of production. Statement: “As a firm in the long run increases the quantities of all factors employed‚ other things being equal‚ the output may rise initially at a more rapid rate than the rise of increase in inputs‚ then output may increase in the same proportion

the average cost per unit of output occurs at a decreasing rate. Economies of scale show the cost advantages larger firms have in some industries‚ like basic metals‚ where costs per unit fall with the cumulative volume of output. A graph of a learning curve shows that average costs per unit of output fall when the cumulative quantity of output produced since inception increases. This decrease in the average cost per unit of output occurs at a decreasing rate. Learning curves show the cost advantages
