An adult weighting 600 N raises the centre of gravity of his body by 0.25 m while taking each step of 1 m length in jogging. If he jog for 6 km, calculate the energy utillised by him in jogging assuming that there is no energy loss due to friction of ground and air. Assuming that the body of the adult is capable of converting 10% of energy intake in the form of food. calculate the energy equivalents of food that would required to compensate energy utilised for jogging.

In nature the failure of structural members usually result from large torque because of twisting or bending rather than due to tensile or compressive strains. This process of structural breakdown is called buckling and in cases of tall cylindrical structures like trees, the torque is caused by its own weight bending the structure. Thus, the vertical through the centre of gravity does not fall within the base. The elastic torque caused because of this bending about the central axis of the tree is given by (Ypi r ^(2))/(4R) Y is the Young's modulus, r is the radius 4R of the trunk and R is the radius of curvature of the bent surface along the height of the tree containing the centre of gravity (the neutral surface). Estimate the critical height of a tree for a given radius of the trunk.
