Imagine Henry is working on a farm and decides to increase the number of workers to boost the farm's output. What principle is being demonstrated if, after adding a certain number of workers, each additional worker contributes less to the total output than the previous one, assuming all other factors remain constant?
The law of diminishing returns is a principle in economics that states as one input variable is increased, there is a point at which the marginal increase in output decreases, assuming all other inputs are constant.
The law of constant returns
The law of accelerating returns
The law of increasing returns

Imagine a farm where Noah decides to keep adding more workers to harvest wheat. How does the law of diminishing returns impact this scenario?
The law of diminishing returns impacts this scenario by causing a decrease in the marginal output of wheat per additional worker beyond a certain point.
The law of diminishing returns impacts this scenario by increasing the marginal output of wheat per additional worker beyond a certain point.
The law of diminishing returns impacts this scenario by having no effect on the relationship between the number of workers and the amount of wheat harvested.
The law of diminishing returns impacts this scenario by causing a linear increase in the amount of wheat harvested regardless of the number of workers.
