6a) What functiona does money perform in an economy?(12mrks)

b] Giving examples distinguish between near money and money substitutes (8mrks)

Solution

6a) Money refers to anything generally acceptable for the purchase of goods and services and settlement of debt. Money which is generally acceptable by the population is described as Legal tender. For example in Cameroon FCFA is a legal tender as well in CEMAC member countries as Gabon, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Congo and Central African Republic. It perfoms the following functions

1] It serves as a medium of exchange because money is used to purchase or buy goods and services and settle debts. This is the most important function of money

2] It acts as a store of value. Properties can be bought and stored inorder to later resell in the future when the value appreciate or increases. For example Land, estates, companies, stadium etc

3) It serves as a standard of deferred payment. Deferred payment is the ability of a buyer to collect products uncredit inorder to pay in the future when money is available. This makes borrowing possible with money

4] It serves as a unit of account. Money expresses the value of a product to be either high or low value base on their prices. An expensive product is having high price while a cheap product is having low value

5] It is used to pay workers wages or salaries after a work done

B] Near money refers to any liquid assets that act as a store of value but cannot be used as medium of exchange. For example government bonds, treasury bills and short term bills having 91 days to maturity. These assets can easily be converted into money hence they are also called Quasi money.

While

Substitute money refers to anything which act as medium of exchange but not as a store of value. For example credit cards and cheques. They can be used by people to pay fo

MAP READING

PRACTICAL

TUTOR ENOW MARTIN EGBE

LESSON

1] A hypothetical map with scale 1:50,000 is having a map length 14cm, map width 8cm, grid references spacing of 2cm.Reduce the map and insert the following features

I] Triangular pillar (315212)
II] Market (305225)
III] Church (327236)
IV] Hospital (336238)

Eastings starts from 30 and above
Northing starts from 20 and above

prepare your key .

SOLUTION

Map length= 14cm
Reduced map length= 14cm÷2=7cm

Map width= 8cm
Reduced map width= 8cm÷2=4cm

Map grid reference spacing= 2cm
Reduced grid references spacing=2cm÷2=1cm

Map scale = 1:50,000×2
Reduced map scale= 1:100,000

Use the reduced length, width, grid references spacing inorder to draw your reduced map and insert the features appropriately.

2] A hypothetical map with scale 1:50,000 is having a football field with complete square 12 and incomplete square of 21. Calculate the area of the pitch on the ground or earth surface (3mrks)

Solution

Map scale= 1:50,000
Complete square= 12
Incomplete square= 21/2
Adjusted square= 10.5

Total number of squares= Complete+incomplete

= 12+10.5

Total number of squares= 22.5

Area (km²)= Map area (cm²)×map scale/100,000 × map scale/ 100,000

= 22.5×50,000/100,000 × 50,000/100,000
= 22.5 × ¼
= 22.5/4

Area (km²)= 5.63km²

3] A hypothetical map with scale 1:75,000 is having a railway line line distance 12cm. calculate the ground distance of the railway (2mrks)

Solution

Map scale= 1:75,000
Rail distance= 12cm

Ground distance (km)= Map distance × map scale/100,000
= 12 × 75000/100,000
= 12× 0.75

Distance (km)= 9km

2a. What is the theory of Sea floor spreading (5mrks)

This was the second theory on crustal motion called Sea floor spreading theory which stated that

*"the oceanic crust or SIMA is slowly moving away from a mountain ridge known as mid-oceanic oceanic ridge found at the center of some oceans by magma being ejected or injected from below towards the surface"*

According to sea floor spreading theory new light continental crust or SIAL are added or added to the dense oceanic crust at the mid-oceanic ridge while other older oceanic crust are being destroyed by raising magma after sliding or descending back into the mantle at the deep sea trenches near the edges of continental and oceanic plates or continental/continental plates.

Old oceanic plates are destroyed in the mantle at the deep sea trenches inorder to form magma, which rises and solidifies towards the surface to form new continental crust.

b. Examine the causes of sea floor spreading and evidences (15mrks)

Firstly *Mid - oceanic volcanic eruption* is one of the cause of sea floor spreading. This is the *major cause of movement of the oceanic crust or SIMA* according to Harry Hess because the oceanic crust lays on the Asthenosphere it's subjected to move towards any direction due to influence of sub crustal convectional currents or thermal conversational current in the mantle. This cause the dense oceanic crust to sink and destroy in the mantle to form a *V-shape feature* called *deep sea trenches*

Despite the spreading of the sea, the earth surface is not increasing nor expanding because as old oceanic crust are destroyed new oceanic crust are created hence the earth surface is neither increasing nor reducing in size.

It is a theory having the following strength of evidences.

The following serves as proofs or evidences the oceanic crust or SIMA is moving. They include:

Firstly*The age of rocks increases as distance away from the mid Oceanic ridge Increases*.

Rocks are younger towards the mid-

A] 5km
B] 10km
C] 5cm
D] 15km

Solution

Map scale= 1/100,000
Map distance= 10cm

Ground distance= Map distance (cm) × map scale/100,000

= 10× 100,000/100,000
= 10/1

Ground distance= 10km

ANSWER=B

D] 14km²

Solution

Length =7cm
Width= 4cm
Area on the map in cm²= Length × width
Area (cm²)= 7cm×4cm
= 28cm²

Area on the ground (km²)= Map area×map scale/100,000 × map scale/100,000

= 28× 50,000/100,000× 50,000/100,000
= 28/4
