shows the price of aluminium over the past six years. It can be seen from Figure 1 that the price of aluminium has fluctuated a great deal during this period. For example: between July 2008 and February 2009 the price fell by 57%; in August 2009 alone the price rose by 16%. In an essay of 1500 words or fewer‚ use economic analysis to explain changes in the price of aluminium over the period shown in Figure 1 and why the price fluctuations have been so great.

To determine how changes in price and quantity influence market equilibrium one must first understand the relationship between demand curve and the supply curve. The amount of good or service that buyers can purchase is the quantity demanded‚ and the amount of good or service that sellers can sell is the quantity supplied. The demand curve depicts what occurs to the quantity demanded when its price changes while holding (income‚ price of related goods or services‚ taste‚ expectations‚ and

concept of elasticity. It is performed simply by putting weights on the mass hanger. Using Hooke’s Law‚ apparatus weights and 2 types of spring was computed for the spring constant. By performing more than three trials and increasing the weights 10g per trial‚ the behavior of the spring constant was observed with varying force and displacement. With the spring constant obtained‚ the work done on the spring can also be calculated. II. Introduction The experiment defines elasticity which is the
