While it is difficult to identify a real-world market that meets the textbook definition of perfect competition, there are many real-world markets in which price-taking behavior is observed and in those cases the model is quite valid. Give an example of a near-perfectly competitive firm. If you were managing that firm, how would you prepare for the Post-Pandemic World?

A neutron star has a mass of 3.35 × 1030 kg (about the mass of our sun) and a radius of 6.09 × 103 m. Suppose an object falls from rest near the surface of such a star. How fast would it be moving after it had fallen a distance of 0.013 m? (Assume that the gravitational force is constant over the distance of the fall, and that the star is not rotating.)

Low concentrations of methylmercury near the detection limit gave the dimensionless instrument readings: 208.1 , 176.5 , 165.1 , 177.1 , 222.1 , 162.9 , 225.9 , 204.5 , 137.5 , and 208.3 . Ten blanks had a mean reading of 41.9 . The slope of the calibration curve is 1.45 × 10 9 M − 1 . Estimate the signal and concentration detection limits and the lower limit of quantitation for methylmercury.
