thanx mgb_phys for your reply and tips.
in this kind of problem, i assume that the sprinter accelerates w a constant acceleration from starting block to finishing line.
after some Googling, i found this link (http://answers.l.google.com/answers/threadview?id=519149 ) to answer my question...
Power generated by a 100m sprinter.
hai all,
i've been thinking about how much horsepower does a human generate during a 100m sprint...
(after my friends joking with me by telling me running on dyno machine's roller to measure my horsepower. :redface:)
is it possible for me to use P =...
hi all,
thanx for da warm welcome.
happy and glad to hear from u guys.
gaming_addict,
i know what u do with X-Plane software...it's simulation, aite?
when designing an aircraft (not only a/c, any vehicle will do), we normally put the design in a simulation...to get it fly in virtual...
u must know the total thrust/lift from the rotor blades.
from there, u'll have the excess thrust/lift to make the heli climbing up.
since the rotor plane can be tilted to the front, aft, left and right...the total thrust/lift vector also can be change according to collective input by the pilot...
yups...that's the exact method and correct way to measure lift.
can be use for any wing shape or any object.
just reverse the formula...u get the Lift from balance, u know the air density, air speed and also the wing area.
tadaaa...u'll get the Lift Coefficient, Cl in no time. :smile:
hi all,
i dealt with wind tunnel testing for my degree thesis, couple years back.
my thesis title was "Tunnel Correction for Semi-Span Model Testing in Low Speed Wind Tunnel".
maybe i can contribute what i learned about wind tunnel w u guys.
