5) The maximum energy a bone can absorb without breaking is surprisingly small. For a healthyhuman of mass 60 Kg (132 pounds), experiments show that the leg bone can absorb about 20OJ.For what maximum height could a person jump and land upright on both feet without breakingtheir legs? Assume that all energy is absorbed in leg bones on a rapid landing.

Assume that the man and the Earth is an isolated system, so there is no heat transfer is occurs.

5. A cart with m= 3.40kg rides on the track shown. The track is frictionless except for a level section 0.40m long where μk = 0.54. The cart is initially at rest against spring 1 (k₁ = 1400N/m) which is compressed by 8.00cm. When released it travels along the track until it reaches spring 2 (k2= 800N/m) which it compresses until the cart stops. If h₁ = 0.38m and h₂ = 0.14m, determine the speed of the cart at points A, B, C and D. Also how much will spring 2 be compressed at the end. framm] =3.40kg kží = 800 N/m Remb A k₁=1 2₁-1400/m h₁-0,38 D B d=0.40m = 0,54 мк of ....... oservation Im h₂= = 0,14
