What do you understand price elasticity of supply to be? Indicate if the
coefficient is usually positive or negative and why. (3)
3.4 With reference to price elasticity of demand, answer the following
questions:
3.4.1 Indicate what the two (2) main determinants are that price elasticity
of demand depends on. (2)
3.4.2 With the aid of a diagram (draw the diagram), illustrate and explain
what a linear demand curve is, where exactly the top of the curve is
and where the bottom of the curve is, and how elasticity values
(coefficients) vary on the curve from being infinitely (perfectly)
elastic to unit elastic and finally to completely (perfectly) inelastic.

A body of mass 80kg moving with a velocity of 3 meter per second hit a stationary body of mass 40kg.
a. If the bodies move together after impact . Calculate the velocity of the composite body just after impact.
b. If the bodies do not move together and the body of mass 40kg is moving with a velocity of 3 meter per second in the same direction as that of the body of mass 80kg . Find the velocity of the 80kg after impact.
