At this instant,A. n > w.B. n = w.C. n < w.D. We can’t tell about n without knowing v.This occurs when the normal force goes to zero or, equivalently, when all the weight is used to achieve circular motion.Fc = mg = m v2 /r v = (gr)½ (just like an object in orbit)Note this approach can also be used to estimate the maximum walking speed.At what speed does the car lose contact?Physics 207: Lecture 11, Pg 12Orbiting satellites vT = (gr)½Physics 207: Lecture 11, Pg 13Locomotion: how fast can a biped walk?Physics 207: Lecture 11, Pg 14How fast can a biped walk?What about weight?(a) A heavier person of equal height and proportions can walk faster than a lighter person(b) A lighter person of equal height and proportions can walk faster than a heavier person(c) To first order, size doesn’t matterPhysics 207: Lecture 11, Pg 15How fast can a biped walk?What about height?(a) A taller person of equal weight and proportions can walk faster than a shorter person(b) A shorter person of equal weight and proportions can walk faster than a taller person(c) To first order, height doesn’t matterPhysics 207: Lecture 11, Pg 16How fast can a biped walk?What can we say about the walker’s acceleration if there is UCM (a smooth walker) ?Acceleration is radial !So where does it, ar, come from?(i.e., what external forces act on the walker?)1.
