Complete Question:

The elastic energy stored in your tendons can contribute up to 35 % of your energy needs when running. Sports scientists have studied the change in length of the knee extensor tendon in sprinters and nonathletes. They find (on average) that the sprinters' tendons stretch 43 mm , while nonathletes' stretch only 32 mm . The spring constant for the tendon is the same for both groups, 31 {\rm {N}/{mm}}. What is the difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the nonathlethes?

Answer:

\triangle E = 12.79 J

Explanation:

Sprinters' tendons stretch, x_s = 43 mm = 0.043 m

Non athletes' stretch, x_n = 32 mm = 0.032 m

Spring constant for the two groups, k = 31 N/mm = 3100 N/m

Maximum Energy stored in the sprinter, E_s = 0.5kx_s^2

Maximum energy stored in the non athletes, E_m = 0.5kx_n^2

Difference in maximum stored energy between the sprinters and the non-athlethes:

\triangle E = E_s - E_n = 0.5k(x_s^2 - x_n^2)\\\triangle E = 0.5*3100* (0.043^2 - 0.032^2)\\\triangle E = 0.5*31000*0.000825\\\triangle E = 12.79 J

How does changes in distance affect the gravitational pull between two objects? Describe and give one example.
maxonik [38]
The formula is

F_grav = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

G m1 and m2 are going to stay the same once chosen no matter what the distance is. The only thing that will change is the distance.

As the distance increases, the Gravitational Force will decrease. It will decrease by quite a bit.

As the distance decreases, the gravitational force will Increase.

The relationship is inverse. The moon travelling around the earth is one example. The earth travelling around the sun is another.

What are some examples of wave refractions?​
ankoles [38]

-- The lenses of eyeglasses work because of refraction.

-- A pencil standing in a half-glass of water looks broken because of refraction.

-- The lenses and mirrors in telescopes and microscopes work because of refraction.

-- When the sun is setting and it looks squashed ... shorter and wider than a true circle ... that's caused by refraction of the sunlight through Earth's atmosphere.
