1. A flywheel is the shape of a sphere of radius R. Calculatethe stored energy again for rotation time T and total mass M. Donot attempt to use moment of inertia or rotational mechanics, do itthe way we did in class.

2. Find an exercise calorie website, and for a 70 kg personwalking on a treadmill at 5 kilometers per hour, by varying thegrade of the treadmill, plot the work output power (of lifting theperson) vs. the fuel (food) consumption input power of the person.That is, for different grades, (% incline), find the fuelconsumption in watts, and calculate the work output of the personlifting themselves against gravity, and plot work output vs. fuelconsumption. Note that a 10 % grade means climbing 15 feet forevery 100 feet of horizontal travel, so you will have to a littletrigonometry here. What is the differential efficiency of theperson, that is, for dx increase in fuel consumption, which resultsin dy increase in work output, the differential efficiency isdy/dx. Where does the input power that does not result in usefullifting work go?
