A 60-kg runner raises his center of mass approximately 0.5 m with each step. Although his leg muscles act as a spring, recapturi

ng the energy each time his feet touch down, there’s an average 10% loss with each compression. What must the runner’s additional power output be to account for just this loss, if he averages 0.8 s per stride?

Answer: P = 36.75W

The additional power needed to account for the loss is 36.75W.

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of the runner m= 60 kg

Height of the centre of gravity h= 0.5m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8m/s

The potential energy of the body for each step is;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.5

PE = 294J

Since the average loss per compression on the leg is 10%.

Energy loss = 10% (P.E)

E = 10% of 294J

E = 29.4J

To calculate the runner's additional power

given that time per stride is = 0.8s

Power P = Energy/time

P = E/t

P = 29.4J/0.8s

P = 36.75W

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 264- cm -long string that is fixed at both ends
miv72 [106K]

The three longest wavelengths for the standing waves on a 264-cm long string that is fixed at both ends are:

  1. 5.2 meters.
  2. 2.6 meters.
  3. 1.7meters.

Given data:

Length of the fixed string = 264cms = 2.64 meters

The wavelength for standing waves is given by:

λ = 2L/n

where,

  • λ is the wavelength
  • L is the length of the string

For n = 1,

  • λ = 2×2.6/1

= 5.2 meters

For n = 2,

  • λ = 2×2.6/2

= 2.6 meters

For n = 3,

  • λ = 2×2.6/3

= 1.7 meters

a car takes 125 ft to brake from 60 to 0 mph. Assume that the acceleration of the Prius is constant while braking. Find how long
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

2.84 seconds

Explanation:

t = ?

distance = 125

Velocity origianal = 60 m/hr = 88 ft/s

     AVERAGE velocity = 88/2 = 44 ft/s

44 t = 125

t = 125/44 = 2.84 s
