<span>Waves in a given area typically have a range of heights. For weather reporting and for scientific analysis of wind wave statistics, their characteristic height over a period of time is usually expressed as significant wave height. This figure represents an average height of the highest one-third of the waves in a given time period (usually chosen somewhere in the range from 20 minutes to twelve hours), or in a specific wave or storm system.

Answer:
The article revealed the fact that Black inventors have always played an active role in inventing new things in America. In the 18th and 19th centuries they were denied the right to patent their inventions because of their status as slaves. This has changed for the better in present times as many Black inventors are being granted patent rights.
Explanation:
The article, "America’s always had black inventors – even when the patent system explicitly excluded them", by Shontavia Johnson, explained the active role that Black Americans, both free and slaves played in inventing things in the United Slaves. The article explained that although the patent rights signed into the constitution in 1787 was written in a neutral tone, it did not change the fact that black inventors were actually denied patent rights.
This segregation affected people like Henry Boyd, Ned, Benjamin Montgomery among others. In recent times, this segregation has significantly been curbed as many Black inventors are now owners of patents. An example is Lonnie Johnson, inventor of the Water Gun and owner of more than 80 patents.
Answer:
Destructive interference happens when one wave is oscillating the opposite way as the other one, so it compensates.

Answer:
The correct answer is: C.
Explanation:
- The given situation is the example of a Reflex Action.
- Reflex action can be defined as an action shown in response to a sudden stimulus.
- The CNS or the Central Nervous System is comprised of the Brain and the Spinal Cord which receives the Sensory impulses from the Receptor organ, integrates or decides on the response which needs to be provided and then sends the Response impulses to the Effector organ.
- The PNS or the Peripheral Nervous System is comprised of the sensory and motor neurons those are responsible for connecting the Sensory organ and the Motor organ to the CNS, respectively.
- In the situation, Sarah's eyes perceives the ball and sends sensory impulses through the optic nerve containing the sensory neurons (PNS) to the spinal cord.
- The spinal cord possess inter-neurons (CNS) that decides over the action to be done in response to the stimulus.
- The Response stimulus is send from the inter-neurons via the motor neurons (PNS) to the eye muscles of Sarah and Sarah performs the action, that is, she blinks.
