<span>In physics, a surface wave is a mechanical wave that propagates along the interface between differing media, usually as a gravity wave between two fluids with different densities. A surface wave can also be an elastic (or a seismic) wave, such as with a Rayleigh or Love wave.

5. Why are ceramics and plastics good insulators?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Here

Explanation:

They don't have free electrons moving around (delocalised electrons) so they can't conduct heat and electricity which gives them a property of good insulators. The insulators stop us having an electric shock because they don't conduct electricity as we use them to insulate metal wires and other metallic things. can i have brainliest now pls!

Define each of these dimensions of development: physical, cognitive, psychosocial, and moral. (8 points)
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Physical development refers to the growth, physical and biological changes that happens in the humans body between birth and till they get to adolescence stage. There is development in brain, senses, they way they talk, physical appearance e.r.c.

Examples of these include, as humans grow, there is an increase in the way they interact with other people.

Babies tend to interact and learn new words even as their sense organs are been developed.

Cognitive development refers to how children develop in knowledge, skills, they way they think, their disposition and problem solving ability. These help children to think and understand their environment better.

Psychosocial development entails psychological and social development and it refers to how human personality is developed, acquiring social attitudes and skills from young age to adult. It entails how humans interact with their environment.

Moral development entails changes that occur in humans from childhood to adulthood by possesing the the skills and ability to know what is right and what is wrong i.e an understanding of morals behavior.

How fast would the International Space Station (ISS) have to travel to maintain a circular orbit a distance of 1400 km above the
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

Explanation:

Orbital speed of satellite is given by  v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}, where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of Earth and r is the distance to satellite from centre of Earth.

r = R + h = 6350 + 1400 = 7750 km = 7.75 x 10⁶ m

G = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg

Substituting

              v=\sqrt{\frac{6.673\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{7.75\times 10^6}}=7223.86m/s=7.22km/s

  The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

A rifle of mass M is initially at rest, but is free to recoil. It fires a bullet of mass m with a velocity +v relative to the gr
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

V=-\dfrac{mv}{M}

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of rifle = M

Initial velocity ,u= 0

Mass of bullet = m

velocity of bullet =  v

Lets take final speed of the rifle is V

There is no any external force ,that is why linear momentum of the system will be conserve.

Initial linear momentum = Final  linear momentum

 M x 0 + m x 0 = M x V + m v

0 =  M x V + m v

V=-\dfrac{mv}{M}

Negative sign indicates that ,the recoil velocity will be opposite to the direction of bullet velocity.

A girl of mass 55 kg throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Given

Contact Time = t = 0.05 seconds

Mass (of ball) = 0.80kg

Initial Velocity = u = 25m/s

Final Velocity = 25m/s

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is given by;

F = ma

Where m = 0.8kg

a = Average Acceleration

a = (u + v)/t

a = (25 + 25)/0.05

a = 50/0.05

a = 1000m/s²

Average Force = Mass * Average Acceleration

Average Force = 0.8kg * 1000m/s²

Average Force = 800kgm/s²

Average Force = 800N

Hence, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N
