Why do gymnasts use floor mats that are very thick?
we know that change in momentum is equal to impulse.
And when gymnast lands on any surface then their momentum change is same.
we know that
this time is required to change momentum
Now if mats are thick then change in momentum takes longer time,
so that force become less.due to this less risk of injury.
4. What is the benefit of bending your knees when you land from a jump, rather than landing straight-legged? 5. Why do gymnasts and cheerleaders tumble on thick mats, rather than the hardwood floor? 6. Why can't you make your car move forwards when sitting inside of it by pushing on the dashboard?
4. Gymnasts often perform difficult aerial maneuvers landing from great heights. The vertical ground reaction force can approach 15X body weight. Explain why gymnasts use mats and extra padding to cushion their landings. Base your explanation on specific mechanical principles you've learned both in class and from your readings. nomomher that yymnasts have

Design forms to support a flat slab floor 6 in. thick of normal weight concrete, using construction grade Douglas Fir Larch framing members and steel shoring. Ceiling height is 8 ft and bays are 18 x 18 ft. Since the forms will have continuing reuse, do not adjust base values for short term load. State your assumptions clearly. Use ¾ in as Sheathing thickness. Use 2x4s as joists. Use 4x4s as stringers.

A 1.8-cm-thick wood floor covers a 4.0m×5.5m room. The subfloor on which the flooring sits is at a temperature of 16.2 ∘C, while the air in the room is at 19.1 ∘C.What is the rate of heat conduction through the floor? Use 0.200 W/m⋅K for the thermal conductivity of wood.
A 2.3-cm-thick wood floor covers a 4.0m×5.5m room. The subfloor on which the flooring sits is at a temperature of 16.4 ∘C, while the air in the room is at 19.6 ∘C. What is the rate of heat conduction through the floor? Use 0.200 W/m⋅K for the thermal conductivity of wood. Express your answer in watts.
Schell Company manufactures automobile floor mats. It currently has two product lines, the Standard and the Deluxe. Schell has a total of $26,540 in overhead. It currently uses a traditional cost system with overhead applied to the product on the basis of either labor hours or machine hours.
