Please answer all questions. 1. One simple model for a person running the 100 m dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.4 m/s in 2.34 s , what will be his total time? 2. Excellent human jumpers can leap straight up to a height of 120 cm off the ground. To reach this height, with what...

Assume that the maximum horizontal distance you can throw a baseball (m = 0.145 kg) at an angle of α0 = 45∘ above the horizontal is 25 m. Part A) What is the kinetic energy of the baseball just after it leaves your hand? Ignore air resistance and the small distance the ball is above the ground when it leaves your hand. Take the zero of potential energy to be at the ground. Part B) At the ball's maximum height,...

Leg Spring (Running) Running without springs would be exhausting. Consider a 70 kg person running at 4 m/sec. During each step their COM sinks 4 cm (below resting) during stance and rises 2 cm (above resting) during the aerial phase. Determine the positive work they must do against gravity with each step. Then, calculate the power they must put out with each step. If their forward speed fluctuates by 10% during each stance phase (i.e., 3.6 m/s at mid-stance), determine...
