Is walking just a constant state of falling?

Physics

atroni [7]4 years ago

Answer:

Yes. Walking is controlled falling because you need to let go in order to move forward. If you never let your foot fall, your movements would be stilted and robotic. And according to medical engineers," When we walk normally we are constantly correcting tiny falls to keep ourselves stable."

. A 79 g sample of water at 21oC is heated until it becomes steam with a temperature of 143oC. Find the change in heat content o
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

40479.6 J

Explanation:

Applying,

q = cm(t₂-t₁).................... Equation 1

Where q = change in heat content of the system, c = specific heat capacity of the system, m = mass of the system, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 79 g = 0.079 kg, t₁ = 21°C, t₂ = 143°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

q = 4200(0.079)(143-21)

q = 331.8(122)

q = 40479.6 J

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr
Illusion [34]

Answer:

F_{sprinter}=110.4N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

W=F_{total}.d

So

W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

So

F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N

Gulls are often observed dropping clams and other shellfish from a height to the rocks below, as a means of opening the shells.
kumpel [21]

Answer:

v = 17.71 m / s

Explanation:

We can work this exercise with the kinematics equations. In general the body is released so that its initial velocity is zero, the acceleration of the acceleration of gravity

                v² = v₀² - 2 g (y -y₀)

                v² = 0 - 2g (y -y₀)

when it hits the stone the height is zero and part of the height of the seagull I

              v² = 2g y₀

              v = Ra (2g i)

let's calculate

              v =√ (2 9.8 16)

              v = 17.71 m / s
