Do a study of the two-point threshold. Have a friend take a pair of scissors and, with the blades closed, touch you lightly on the forearm with the points while your eyes are closed. Have your friend open the blades slightly and touch you with both points at the same time. Have your friend continue to spread the blades and touch you just to the point at which you can feel both blades. Now measure the distance between the points of the scissor blades. This is the two-point threshold. Repeat this procedure for different parts of your body (e.g., finger, palm, neck, back, foot, thigh). Record your measurements of the two-point thresholds for each body part. Thinking carefully about what you have learned about the brain in this experiment, write up your results and try to explain them. (Note: You do not need to know anything about touch sensation to write this essay.) Be sure to address the following questions: Does the two-point threshold differ across your body? Report your actual measurements of the two-point threshold and use those measurements as the basis of your discussion. Given what you know about the brain, why might the differences that you found exist? Imagine that you had suffered damage to some specific part of your cerebral cortex. Would your ability to detect touches on your skin be impaired? Might this depend on which part(s) of your cortex had been damaged? Explain. Why do you think certain body parts might be "overrepresented" in the human cortex? (Hint: One way to think about this question is to consider why having certain parts of the body be overrepresented in the brain might be adaptive? What in human experience could have lead those parts to be overrepresented?)

Choose one health communication campaign to focus on and explain the campaign to your colleagues.

Let's Stop HIV Together

What is the target audience? Is the target audience suffering from a specific ailment or morbidity (disease)?

Share and describe two objectives of the campaign.

Inform your colleagues if the campaign has demonstrated evaluative success or not? Explain using statistics.

Is the campaign designed to prevent, intervene or rehabilitate the target population? Discuss and explain.

The Let’s Stop HIV Together campaign raises awareness about HIV and its impact on the lives of all Americans, and fights stigma by showing that persons with HIV are real people—mothers, fathers, friends, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, partners, wives, husbands, and co-workers.

More than a million people are living with HIV in the U.S., and the images and stories in this campaign are reminders that HIV does not discriminate across race, gender, or age.

Then, describe two health promotion methods the campaign utilized to reach the target audience. Did the campaign use public service announcements? Fact sheets? Education groups? Thoroughly explain how and what methods were utilized.

Every voice and every story is important. Individuals featured in Let’s Stop HIV Together have shared their stories to raise awareness, fight stigma about HIV, encourage HIV prevention and testing, and champion the power of relationships in the personal and public fight to stop HIV.

Explain the channels the campaign used to reach the population. Did the campaign use television? Radio? Interpersonal communication?

Whether it’s a conversation, text message, Facebook status update, or a tweet—we must talk to each other about HIV and how we can prevent it. In fact, you can do it right now.

Post two questions you have regarding the campaign. Respond to two questions or the health promotion methods discussed by your colleagues.

Does program plan to expand?

And are these health promotions reaching the youth groups?

Use your text as a resource in addition to the website and other scholarly sources as needed. Include APA citations and references.

a) imagine a market for tennis rackets, with a certain equilibrium price (PE) and quantity (QE). Depicit it on a graph, using what you know about the laws of supply and demand.

b) show on the graph what would happen to PE and QE in this market if the hourly charge to use tennis court doubled. Which determinants are affected? Explain what is happening

c)show on your original graph what would happen to PE and QE if the price of nylon (used for racket strings) dropped and if tennis gained in popularity relative to golf. which determinants are affected now? Explain

d) explain the concept of price elasticity of demand and discuss why you think that the demand for tennis rackets would be price elastic or price inelastic.

e) would the demand curve for tennis rackets therefore be relatively steep or flat? why? how would this affect your answers to b and c?

All questions must be answered in details

ELASTICITY

1. Suppose that Bill’s Thrift Mart annual Founder’s Day sale, when all prices in the store are reduced by 50%, results in its sales doubling compared to a typical day. (a) What is Thrift Mart’s price elasticity of demand? (b) Is the Founder’s Day sale a good idea for the store?

2. List three examples of an inferior good (not discussed in class or in the text). Justify your choice of examples.

3. How responsive are your grades to a change in the amount of studying you do? For example, if you increased your study time by 25%, how would your grades respond? State these estimates as elasticities. Are your estimates high or low? Would it be worth your while to study more for each class? Explain.

4. Jumping Joe’s Night Club has found that when they offer half price admission to the club on Wednesday nights (when business is typically slow), their total revenue rises. (a) Is their demand elastic? Explain. (b) Is it a good idea for them to continue with this promotion? Why?

van der Waals Cycles For all cycles in this section, assume that you have exactly 1.000 moles of gas and that the cycle is run reversibly. The known state parameters for the cycle will be given as the reduced temperature Tr T=Tc and reduced pressure Pr P=Pc, where Tc and Pc are the critical temperature and pressure of your assigned diatomic molecule. Assume the gas is a diatomic van der Waals gas. 1. You have a Carnot cycle that begins with an adiabatic expansion from an initial state dened by a temperature of Tr = 1:75 and a pressure of Pr = 2:00 to a pressure of Pr = 1:75. The system then undergoes an isothermal expansion to a pressure of Pr = 1:25, followed by an adiabatic compression and then an isothermal compression back to the initial state. Calculate w, q, ΔU, ΔS, ΔSsur, ΔH, ΔA and ΔG for each step in the cycle and for the total cycle.

For all cycles in this section, assume that you have exactly 1.000 moles of gas and that the cycle is run reversibly. The known state parameters for the cycle will be given as the reduced temperature T_r ≡ T /T_c and reduced pressure P_r ≡ P/P_c, where T_c and P_c are the critical temperature and pressure of your assigned diatomic molecule, N₂. Assume the gas is a diatomic van der Waals gas.

You have an Ericsson cycle that begins with an isothermal expansion from an initial state of T_r = 1.75 and P_r = 2.00 to a pressure of P_r = 1.75. The system then undergoes isobaric expansion to a temperature of T_r = 2.00, followed by isothermal compression and then isobaric compression back to the initial state. Calculate w, q, ∆U, ∆S, ∆Ssur, ∆H, ∆A and ∆G for each step in the cycle and for the total cycle.
