The elastic energy stored in your tendons can contribute up to 35% of your energy needs when running. Sports scientists have stu
died the change in length of the knee extensor tendon in sprinters and nonathletes. They find (on average) that the sprinters tendons stretch 41 mm, while nonathletes' stretch only 33 mm. The spring constant for the tendon is the same for both groups, 33 N/mm. What is the difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the nonathlethes?

The concepts used to solve this problem are those related to the Pythagorean theorem for which we will calculate the distance and the pitch.
According to the attached diagram we have that the expression of the resulting displacement is
Therefore the resultant displacement of the girl is
Therefore the girl has displaced around of 5 blocks
Answer:
a The kinetic energy is
b The height of the center of mass above that position is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the rod is
The mass of the rod
The angular speed at the lowest point is
Generally moment of inertia of the rod about an axis that passes through its one end is
Substituting values
Generally the kinetic energy rod is mathematically represented as
From the law of conservation of energy
The kinetic energy of the rod during motion = The potential energy of the rod at the highest point
Therefore
Answer
given,
before collision
mass of car A = m_a = 1300 kg
velocity of car A = v_a = 35 mph
mass of car B = m_b= 1000 kg
velocity of car B = v_b = 25 mph
after collision
V_a = 30 mph
V_b = 31.5 mph
Initial momentum
final momentum
here initial momentum is equal to the final momentum of the car.
hence, momentum is conserved in the collision.
