Answer:

Peaks

Explanation:

- A transverse wave is a wave in which the oscillation occurs in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the oscillation occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave

In a transverse wave, the highest and the lowest points of the wave are determined by the presence of crests (peaks) and troughs. On the contrary, in a longitudinal wave, the wave consists of alternating regions of higher particle density (called compressions) and of lower particle density (called rarefactions).

Therefore, the correct answer is

peaks

At resonance, what is impedance of a series RLC circuit? less than R It depends on many other considerations, such as the values

denis23 [38]

Answer:

at resonance impedence is equal to resistance and quality factor is dependent on R L AND C all

Explanation:

we know that for series RLC circuit impedance is given by

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+\left ( X_L-X_C \}right )^2$

but we know that at resonance $X_L=X_C$

putting $X_L=X_C$ in impedance formula , impedance will become

Z=R so at resonance impedance of series RLC is equal to resistance only

now quality factor of series resonance is given by

$Q=\frac{\omega L}{R}=\frac{1}{\omega CR}=\frac{1}{R}\sqrt{\frac{L}{C}}$ so from given expression it is clear that quality factor depends on R L and C
