Answer to Question 1

The PS relation shifts up by a factor A. The WS relation shifts up by a factor Ae. If Ae>A, the PS curve shifts up by less than the WS relation shifts up, leading to an increase in the natural rate of unemployment for some time.

Answer to Question 2

A Fed purchase of bonds will cause an increase in the supply of central bank money. To restore equilibrium in this market, the interest rate will have to fall. As it does, the quantity demanded for central bank money will rise and, therefore, restore equilibrium.
