Chapter 1, Problem 9IP
Two schoolchildren race across a playground for a ball. Tim starts running at a distance of 15 m from the ball, and Jan starts running at a distance of 12 m from the ball. If Tim’s average speed is 4.2 m/s and Jan’s average speed is 4.0 m/s, which child will reach the ball first? Show how you arrived at your answer

Now, the bears I live with average, the males, eight to twelve hundred pounds [360 to 540 kg]. They're the largest bears in the world. They've been clocked at 41 [mph] and they've run a hundred meter dash in 5.85 seconds, which a human on steroids doesn't even approach.
1. Compute the speed of a grizzly bear using Mr. Treadwell's hundred meter dash statement.
2. Compute the momentum of a grizzly bear using the speed you calculated in part 1 and the average mass of 450kg.
3. How fast would a 250 lb man have to run to have the same momentum you calculated in part 2? (You may have to convert units first).
4. How fast would a 4000 lb car have to drive to have the same momentum you calculated in part 2? (You may have to convert units first)
How many DOF do you have in your wrist and hand combined?The question must be answered by mathematical calculation, schematic description, and computer integration.
