May someone help...please. Pretty please...

If a person is 18 % shorter than average, what is the ratio of his walking pace (that is, the frequency 'f' of his motion) to the walking pace of a person of average height? Assume that a person's leg swings like a pendulum and that the angular amplitude of everybody's stride is about the same.
f(short)/f(avg)=?

Respuesta :

We have that  the ratio of his walking pace  to the walking pace of a person of average height is

[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]

given the assumption and the calculation given below

From the question we are told that:

Consider a person 18\% shorter than average

Let average height of a person be [tex]10m[/tex]

Therefore

The height of an [tex]18\%[/tex] shorter man is mathematically given as

H=10*0.18

H=8.2m

Generally, the equation for velocity is mathematically given by

[tex]v=\frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{{g}{l}}[/tex]

Where we have the  Assumption that a person's leg swings like a pendulum and that the angular amplitude of everybody's stride is about the same

Therefore

[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2}={82}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]

In conclusion

The ratio of his walking pace (that is, the frequency 'f' of his motion) to the walking pace of a person of average height is

[tex]\frac{V_2}{V_1}=1.10[/tex]
