Answer:

Parallel

Explanation:

Most standard 120-volt household circuits in your home are (or should be) parallel circuits. Outlets, switches, and light fixtures are wired in such a way that the hot and neutral wires maintain a continuous circuit pathway independent from the individual devices that draw their power from the circuit.

Hope that helps :)

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Len [333]
The relationship between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the equation:

v=λf, where v is the velocity of the wave, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency. 

If we divide the equation by f we get:

λ=v/f

From here we see that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. So as the frequency increases the wavelength decreases. 

So the second statement is true: As the frequency of a wave increases, the shorter the wavelength is.

A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and ret
emmasim [6.3K]

f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car  = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s

Identify how scientists use radioactive isotopes by selecting the best answers from the drop-down menus. Archaeologists use radi
salantis [7]

Answer:

Archaeologist use radioactive isotopes to determine the ages of various objects, rocks and materials. This is called radioactive dating. Radioactive isotope Carbon-14 is widely used for this dating process.

Scientists use radioactive isotopes in agriculture to monitor or study the uptake and use of essential nutrients by plants from the soil. This helps to determine viability, productivity and nutritious ability of the plants on a piece of land.

Geologists use radioactive isotopes to trace leaks in underground water storage, pipes. Radioactive isotopes are effective tracers because their radioactivity can be easily detected.
