A 60 kg gymnast leaves the floor to perform a somersault, with a reactive force of 2760 N. The center of gravity is 22 cm perpendicular from the line of action of the force. As she first leaves the floor, she can be modelled as a long cylinder with moment of inertia md^2/12 (where d is her length, 1.60 m). The time it takes her to leave the floor is 55 ms. As she leaves the floor calculate: 1. Torque...

An elderly person with a body mass of 65 kg is walking while using a cane in one hand. If the upward force that the cane applies to the hand is 117 N and the vertical acceleration of the body center of mass is 1.32 m/s^2, what is the magnitude of the vertical ground reaction force? Assume that only one foot is on the ground and the other leg is in the swing phase

A flea jumps by exerting a force of 1.17 10-5 N straight down on the ground. A
breeze blowing on the flea parallel to the ground exerts a force of
1.20 10-6 N on the flea. Find the direction
and magnitude (in m/s2) of the acceleration of the flea
if its mass is 6.0 10-7 kg. (Let us assume that
Fwind points to the right.
We will consider this to be the +x direction and vertical
to be the +ydirection.)...

Simone, a 47 kg gymnast, is performing the last tumbling pass of
her floor routine. The tumbling pass involves running as fast as
possible then jumping into the air to complete a double layout with
a twist (this exact maneuver, the double layout with a twist, is
not important, but a photo is provided on Canvas to show you what
this maneuver is). The instant before she jumps into the air, her
center of mass (COM) is 0.90 m above...

A 90 kg man stands in a very strong wind moving at 12 m/s at torso height. As you know, he will need to lean in to the wind, and we can model the situation to see why. Assume that the man has a mass of 90 kg, with a center of gravity 1.0 m above the ground. The action of the wind on his torso, which we approximate as a cylinder 50 cm wide and 90 cm long centered...
