By finding where the supply curve and the demand curve intersect.
By finding where the supply curve and the demand curve intersect.
The law of supply predicts the supply curve will be upward sloping.
Most of them are more elastic in the long run,because all factors of production are variable,not fixed.

Firms in most cases opt to select prices in the elastic regions of their demand curve. This fact explains why marginal revenue curve is always below.

On a stress strain curve the elastic limit is the point where the straight portion curve first starts to curve. When load is removed strain will return to zero. The yield point is a point on the curve just beyond the elastic limit. When load is removed strain will not return to zero. It will return approximately as a straight line parallel to the original, and have an offset strain value. The yield point offset is arbitrary but usually defined as 0.2% (.002 permanent strain) as most common strain devices can measure that amount.
In the short run, most commodities have inelastic supply curves. In the long run, with increased investment, supply could become more elastic. I would hazard a guess that the radio - active isotopes used for nuclear fuel such as Uranium-235 have the most inelastic supply.

The ranking of elasticity from least elastic (most inelastic) to most elastic is as follows: necessity goods, luxury goods, and normal goods.
The ranking of the products in order of elasticity of demand, from the least elastic to the most elastic, is as follows: necessity goods, luxury goods, and then substitute goods.
