Non-discrimination in services under international trade law, specifically within the World Trade Organization (WTO), is governed by two key principles:
- *Most-Favored-Nation (MFN) Treatment*: Countries must treat all WTO members equally, meaning any favorable treatment given to one member must be extended to all others.
- *National Treatment*: Foreign services and service providers must be treated no less favorably than domestic ones once they've entered the market.
These principles aim to ensure
Physical vs Human Geography
Physical = natural systems & processes (weather, climate, landforms). Human = culture, population, cities.
Atmospheric Structure
Pressure & density ↓ with height.
Temperature pattern: Troposphere ↓, Stratosphere ↑, Mesosphere ↓, Thermosphere ↑.
Inversion: temp increases with height in a layer.
Temp ↑ → molecules move faster.
Maps & Coordinates
Global coordinate system = grid for locating places (latitude/longitude).
Latitude → day length;
Log-based recovery is a mechanism used in DBMS to restore the database to a consistent state after a system crash or failure. The system maintains a log file stored on stable storage, recording every transaction's operations before applying them to the database. Each log entry contains the transaction ID, data item name, old value, and new value. Using these logs, the DBMS can reconstruct the database by either undoing incomplete transactions or redoing completed ones.
Two major operations are used...

- *Price Maker*: The firm has significant control over the price.
### 3. Equilibrium of Firm:
- *Definition*: A monopoly firm maximizes profit by
## Supply Overview:
### 1. Determinants of Supply:
- *Price of the Good*: Higher prices generally increase supply.
- *Cost of Production*: Lower production costs increase supply.
- *Technology*: Improved technology can increase supply.
- *Expectations*: Suppliers' expectations about future prices or demand can influence supply.
- *Number of Suppliers*: More suppliers in the market increase supply.
- *Government Policies*: Taxes, subsidies, and regulations can affect supply.
### 2. Law of Supply:
- *Definition*
## Economic Principles Overview:
### 1. Opportunity Cost:
- *Definition*: The value of the next best alternative foregone when making a decision.
- *Example*: If you spend ₹100 on a movie ticket, the opportunity cost is what else you could have bought with that ₹100.
### 2. Marginal Principle:
- *Definition*: Decisions are made based on the additional (marginal) benefits and costs of an action.
- *Example*: Produce more units of a product until marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
### 3. Incremental
