The highest point of a wave is called the crest. Among the choices, the correct answer is C. The height of the wave can be determined using the crest and the trough. The trough is the lowest point of a wave. The wavelength is the distance between two crests of a wave.

Jupiter contains a number of small moons that are thought to be captured comets or material ejected by collisions with larger ob

-Dominant- [34]

I believe the evidence for this theory is that:

The orbits surrounding Jupiter are highly elliptical which are off the plane of the ecliptic, and many of these moons are retrograde. This is very unlikely for moons or satellites which are formed during the planetary accretion. Hence comes the theory.

A bicyclist bikes the 90 mi to a city averaging a certain speed. The return trip is made at a speed that is 1 mph slower. Total

Lynna [10]

Answer:

his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

Explanation:

Let say the speed of the bicycle while he moves towards the city is "v"

now the speed of the round trip must be smaller by 1 mph

so its speed for round trip will be

$v_2 = v - 1$

now we know that total time of the motion is 19 hr

so we will have

$t_1 = \frac{90}{v}$

$t_2 = \frac{90}{v - 1}$

so we will have

$t_1 + t_2 = 19 hr$

$\frac{90}{v} + \frac{90}{v-1} = 19$

$90(2v - 1) = 19(v^2 - v)$

$19 v^2 - 199 v + 90 = 0$

by solving above equation we have

$v = 10 mph$

so his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

A complete series circuit consists of a 12.0 V battery, a 4.70 O resistor, and a switch. The internal resistance of the battery

RoseWind [281]

With the switch open, there's no current in the circuit, and therefore
no voltage drop across any of the dissipative elements (the resistor
or the battery's internal impedance). So the entire battery voltage
appears across the switch, and the voltmeter reads 12.0V .
