Q1)
Answer - 4th worker.
In the above table you can clearly see that till 3rd worker output is increasing at increasing rate but with the addition of 4th worker it started increasing at decrease rate indicating diminishing return in effect.
Q2)
Answer - 6th worker.
Marginal physical product = change in output/change in number of workers
MPP = ∆Q/∆L
At 6th worker, MPP = (58 - 60) /(6 - 5) = -2/1= -2
Therefore, with addition of 6th worker marginal physical product became negative.
