Describe the effects that the speed of an exercise has on the intensity of cardiovascular exercise
ankoles [38]

The speed of an exercise has a lot to do with the intensity of cardiovascular exercise.

The more the speed of an exercise is the greater intensity of the workout is and the more you sweat. However after a certain time you get fatigued and tired out.

For example, if you had planned to do an exercise for 30 minutes and you increase the speed of the exercise then probably you might not be able to complete the 30 mins as youll get fatigued before that time due to the high intensity.

______ is the name of the second stage of Piaget's moral development. In this stage, children older than 10 become aware that ru
diamong [38]

Answer: Autonomous stage

Explanation:

People live in society, which has a set of rules established so that there is an order and people can live in peace. For a person to understand the rules and norms that govern a society, it must be educated and this process starts from the moment a person is born.

Little by little, the person grows and knows what are the rules to follow, what things to do or not. The child in his learning process is understanding what are the rules that must be followed. The processes to learn the rules vary according to various factors that can exert a direct influence or not on the child, causing him to act in a certain way before certain rules.

The psychologist Piaget developed a theory called Moral Development Theory, which is broadly linked to the Cognitive Development Theory. Piaget expresses that for a person to be able to understand morality itself, it must have a level of development that is equivalent to two years of age, which is equivalent to the preoperational period.

The second stage of Piaget's theory of moral development where children over 10 years of age become aware that the rules and laws were created by people is called autonomous. Here the child knows that to obey the rules or not will depend on the situation and his own will. The child can understand why the rules and the importance of obeying them. Children leave egocentrism aside and adopt more adult thinking.
