Does the weight of a ball change with inflation?
Yes, it does. But the weight added by gas (if that is what is being used to inflate it) does not change the weight of an average ball very darn much. You'd have to have a really sensitive scale to actually find the weight of the air in the ball. In fact, someone working in the lab wouldn't weigh the thing. They'd use the size of the ball to find its volume and then look at the pressure and temperature of the gas in the ball and make a calculation to determine the weight of gas. It'd be a loooot faster and probably as accurate - if not more so.
Table of inflation rate of India for last five years?
Inflation.eu is one of many sites that lists the inflation rates of India over the last 5 years. Since 2004, the inflation rate has risen and fallen, with a peak of 14.97 percent in 2009. The rate in 2013 was 9.13 percent.
It was 2.86%.
It depends on the gas. Most can get you sick. Other types of gases can kill you, such as carbon monoxide.

NOTE - This historical conversion is the result of many calculations and considerations by a purpose designed program. The resulting answer should only be regarded as an approximation based on current exchange rates.
Definition of demand-pull inflation?
Demand-pull Inflation is asserted to arise when aggregate demand in an economy outpaces aggregate supply. It involves inflation rising as real gross domestic product rises and unemployment falls, as the economy moves along the Phillips curve. This is commonly described as "too much money chasing too few goods".
How is forex reserve inflation appreciation of rupee related?
Let me explain it step wise: 1. Imagine an X- shaped diagram in front of your eyes. Now place this within X and Y axis with X axis being INR and Y axis being USD. Now imagine first arm of the X- diagram, the arm that goes (\) ie topleft to bottom right: this is the Supply curve of USD vs INR. The other arm that goes (/) ie topright to bottom left: this is the demand curve of USD vs INR. The point where both the arms cross is the equilibrium point (E). This is the current exchange rate ie 1 USD =x INR. 2. Now, if Forex Reserve increases (inflates) the supply arm of the (X curve) shifts upward ie more toward the Y-axis. The demand curve remains constant. Hence the point where the 2 arms interesect, the equilibrium:E, have shifted. This new E, would mean less INR for more USD. 3. Hence the appreciation of INR in effect, as the forex reserve increases (i), the supply of USD in the local Indian market (i), hence there are fewer INR chasing the USD, which indicates a supply glut of USD and hence drop in the exchange rate that USD can command , hence the rupee appreciation.
What is the value of an MS 66 silver dollar?
MS 66 means the coin is in Mint State, or "uncirculated," condition, slightly better than what used to be referred to as "brilliant uncirculated." This is one factor in determining the value of the coin. There are other important bits of information, though, that are needed before the value can be estimated. The year and mint mark of the coin is of utmost importance. Besides condition, the biggest influence in the value of a coin is its rarity, which isn't always related to its age, but it is related to mintage figures for that year for that specific mint. One year may have had a high mintage and survival rate, while the following year may have had a very low mintage; that usually means the later year will be significantly more valuable, even though the previous year is technically "older." Common dates are worth about $200
How much is 900000 worth in 1972?
$900,000.00 in 1972 had the same buying power as $5,179,380.00 in 2016.
What do you mean by inflation?
The overall general upward price movement of goods and services in an economy (often caused by a increase in the supply of money), usually as measured by the Consumer Price Index and the Producer Price Index. Over time, as the cost of goods and services increase, the value of a dollar is going to fall because a person won't be able to purchase as much with that dollar as he/she previously could. While the annual rate of inflation has fluctuated greatly over the last half century, ranging from nearly zero inflation to 23% inflation, the Fed actively tries to maintain a specific rate of inflation, which is usually 2-3% but can vary depending on circumstances.

How much would The Six Million Dollar Man be worth in today's economy?
The answer depends on your own country's economic circumstances, but here in Australia the "cost of living" has increased by about 520% between 1974 (when the TV series began) and 2006. This is based on change in the Consumer Price Index, released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
So $AUD6m in 1974 would have the same purchasing power as $AUD37.2m in 2006.
I guess you could say Steve Austin would be The Forty Million Dollar Man in today's economy.
==
Answer ==
Good stuff! According to the Inflation Calculator at inflationdata.com, inflation in the United States has increased by 346.24% between January 1974 and May 2007 (latest available at the time of writing). That would make the $6,000,000 man of 1974 the $26,774,400 dollar man today in the USofA.
What is the value of a 1922 Liberty Dollar?
6-10-11>>> The coin is NOT an Liberty silver dollar, it's a PEACE dollar (1921-1935) and assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, retail values are $36.00-$40.00, this date is the most common of all Peace dollars.
Assuming that it was struck at Philadelphia and is circulated it is worth face value. If it is uncirculated they will sell for $1 to $20 depending on quality.
Why does it matter if the CPI overstates or understates the inflation rate?
Many people's pensions are linked to the CPI, and it is also generally used as a guide for negotiating pay raises [in the long run, people's raises need to *EXCEED* the 'true CPI', or else their financial situation never improves or indeed, gets worse].
And so when the government 'fudges' the numbers [like in the U.S., where food and energy, (the most basic cost-of-living prices) were recently excluded from the measure] and people don't realize that the number has been fudged, they will tend to lose buying power each year, because their raises in pay/pension won't be keeping up to the *ACTUAL* increase in the cost of living. :)

Explain osi reference model with relevant diagram?
OSI model (Open System Interconnection) was developed by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in the year 1984. It is nothing but an abstract 7-layered model that explains the working of various networks. It explains the changes that the data undergoes, when it passes through the network. This model defines the exact stages that a data must undergo when it travels from one device to another through a network. TCP
/IP
model is another such networking protocol, which is more advanced than the OSI model. The main difference between these two protocols is that the OSI model is older than the TCP
/IP
model and it does not support Internet working. The OSI model diagram was developed to explain the working of various inter-computer
communications and was invented before the advent of the Internet. Scroll down and know more about the working of various layers in the diagram.
OSI Model General Diagram Explained
As you can see in the OSI reference diagram provided in this article, the model is made up of 7 layers, namely the application layer, presentation layer, session layer, transport layer, network layer, data link layer and the physical layer. An easy way to remember the order of these layers is, "All people seem to need data processing", where the first letter of every word represents the respective OSI model layer. These seven layers can be divided into two sets as application set and transport set. The application set consists of application layer, presentation layer and session layer, while the transport set comprises the remaining layers. All these layers together work in synchronization for transmitting data from one computer to another. Given below is a brief information on functions of these layers.
Application Layer: The application layer is said to be the closest layer to the user. It is through this layer that a user can interact with the software application that will aid in the data transfer. The main functions of the application layer are identifying the user who wants to communicate, determine whether the data and networks sources are available and lastly synchronizing the communication between the two users. File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Telnet, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), etc., are some of the actual implementations of application layer.
Presentation Layer: The main function of presentation layer is to convert the data into a format that could be easily recognized by the application layers of other end users. Compression/decompression, conversion, encryption/decryption, coding/decoding, etc., are some of the tasks undertaken by this layer. Thus this layer converts the data obtained from the application layer into a format that can be easily identified by other network layers.
Session Layer: Session layer plays an important role in establishing, maintaining and terminating the connection between two users. This layer controls the communication between the source user and the destination user and also decides the time of communication. Any error report related to application layer, presentation layer and session layer, are provided by this layer.
Transport Layer: The transport layer is responsible for delivering the data or the messages between the two users. The first task that the transport layers carries is to divide the data in packets. This data is further re-assembled
at the side of the receiver user. The transport layer is also responsible for error free data transmission and it also guarantees that the data will be received in correct sequence at the receiver end. UDP, SPX, TCP, etc., are some of the protocols that operate on this layer.
Network Layer: The main function of the network layer is to provide switching technologies, routing technologies and transmitting data from one node to another. This layer creates logical paths for the data transmission, which are known as virtual circuits. Network layer is also responsible for handling errors, packet sequencing, controlling network congestion and addressing. Thus this layer is responsible for the setting up the required network for transferring data from one user to other.
Data Link Layer: Providing reliable transit of the data through a physical network, is one of the main functions of the data link layer. This layer decides the physical configuration of various devices. The data link layer is responsible for synchronization of various physical devices that will transmit the data. It makes sure that the frames are transferred in correct order and asks for retransmission in case of error. Basically, the data link layer is a layer that provides reliable transmission services to the network layer.
Physical Layer: As the name suggests, the physical layer is the layer that deals with the physical components of a network. It is responsible for activation, maintenance and deactivation of various physical links that act in data transmission. Electrical signals, voltage levels, data transmission rates, etc., are some of the major elements defined by the physical layer. It is also responsible for passing and receiving bytes from the physically connected medium.
OSI model is a conceptual model of seven different layers that helps you understand the working of a network in a simple and easy manner. I hope this explanation has cleared your queries.
