A transmission characteristic that could not be achieved completely is bandwidth.

Hence, the correct answer is option “D”.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Bandwidth:

The maximum amount of data that can be transmitted through transmission medium at a given period is called as bandwidth.

  • It is one of the transmission characteristic, which could never be achieved completely.
  • The bandwidth can be estimated using bits-per-second.
  • It measures the difference between lowest and highest frequency that is transmitting in the system to calculate the total frequency.

Explanation for incorrect options:

Latency:

Latency is the measure of how many seconds a network will take to transfer a data from one device to another. This characteristic could be achieved completely while transferring the data.

Hence, the option “A” is wrong.

Throughput:

Actual amount of data that can be transmitted through transmission medium at a given period is called as throughput.

  • Throughput is always lower than the bandwidth; this is because actual network speed is always lower than the specified speed.
  • This characteristic could be achieved completely while transferring the data.

Hence, the option “B” is wrong.

Bit rate:

The total file size of an audio is represented using the bit rate. It is usually represented in bps. This characteristic could be achieved completely while transferring the data.

Hence, the option “C” is wrong.

Please answer the JAVA OOP Programming Assignment scenario below: Patriot Ships is a new cruise line company which has a fleet of 10 cruise ships, each with a capacity of 300 passengers. To manage its operations efficiently, the company is looking for a program that can help track its fleet, manage bookings, and calculate revenue for each cruise. Each cruise is tracked by a Cruise Identifier (must be 5 characters long), cruise route (e.g. Miami to Nassau), and ticket price. The program should also track how many tickets have been sold for each cruise. Create an object-oriented solution with a menu that allows a user to select one of the following options: 1. Create Cruise – This option allows a user to create a new cruise by entering all necessary details (Cruise ID, route, ticket price). If the maximum number of cruises has already been created, display an error message. 2. Search Cruise – This option allows to search a cruise by the user provided cruise ID. 3. Remove Cruise – This op…
