Like.
Depends on several things. If you have not run the air conditioning for cooling the the evaporator will not condense water. If you are... -
russ_watters reacted to Dale's post in the thread B Why higher speeds need more power if backward force is the same? with Like.
This is also why talking about biomechanics in energy discussions is usually not helpful. Life is messy.

Just because you can have an inefficient system, that wastes energy on something, doesn't mean that energy is required to achieve that...

Do you understand why a static force doesn't require any energy? Lean a stick against a wall, and it can stay there exerting a force...

Then do more stairs for the experiment. None of this distraction you are bringing is likely to be helpful for the OP.

Actually running up stairs is easier. I learned it when I was a kid and have practiced it my whole life. It appears I am the only...
