<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

A surface wave is a wave that moves along the interface of two different materials, like air and water.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

A surface wave (from its name) travels on a surface that is found between two different materials.

The motion of the particles of a surface wave is either in the form of ellipse (elliptical motion) or circle (circular motion.

The motion of the particles of a surface wave is considered to be a combination of both transversal motion and longitudinal motion.

Hope this helps :)

It is dangerous to stand near the railway leak when train passing by,why?

Harman [31]

It is dangerous to stand close to railroad tracks when a rapidly moving commuter train passes. Explain why atmospheric pressure would push you toward the moving train. Water pressure inside a hose nozzle can be less than atmospheric pressure due to the Bernoulli effect.

how much gravitational potential energy do you give a 70 kg person when you lift him up 3 m in the air?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Given gravitational potential energy when he's lifted is 2058 J.

Kinetic energy is transferred to the person.

Amount of kinetic energy the person has is -2058 J

velocity of person = 7.67 m/s².

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Weight of person = 70 kg

Lifted height = 3 m

1. Gravitational potential energy of a lifted person is equal to the work done.

$PE_g=W=m\times g\times h\\Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 \ m/s^2 \\PE_g= m = m\times g\times h= 70\times 9.8 \times 3 = 2058\ kg.m/s^2 = 2058\ J$
