Homework Statement
While running in a cross country meet, a member of the team dissipates about 0.35J of mechanical energy per step per kg of her body mass. If she develops a power of 75W during the race and runs at a speed of 5m/s, find her mass.
PS: Consider one [of her] running steps to be 1m.
Homework Equations
I am unsure what equation to use to find mass. I know the equations to find power and work, but in relation to finding mass I am unsure.
The Attempt at a Solution
I cannot attempt a solution with no clue what equation to use to get me started.
I am able to do the work if I have proper equations.
Thanks!
