Fast- this refers to the "overall" pace of an object from a to b, and usually requires very little turnover ratio because the object is large. Like a large ball that is rolling or a runner with very long legs. They arent putting out as much effort because each roll of the ball or each stride that is thrown is covering more distance. We could debate all day that taller runners are less aerodynamic and therefore more energy is used, but at the end of the day tall runners and larger rolling balls have a PHYSIOLOGICAL advantage. If you look at my history, I have always mentally DESPISED runners who are tall and lanky and over glorified. Everyone from craig mottram to jim ryun to ryan hall, I despise and loathe all of them because I feel they are over privileged because of their size and are therefore less talented. The only exception being paul tergat. These runners are fast. But they are absolutely not quick. From a scientific standpoint, they are, indeed, less talented.
You are an idiot. Having a longer stride because of height also requires more force, given the added weight.
No need to make nonsensical remarks because you are a midget who can’t run below a 55 in the 400m.
No one cares you aren’t fast or talented, a time is a time.
Wtf?
Not all tall runners heavy. Ryan hall is 1 of tallest pro marathoners in history and he weighed 130 when he set his record. I still dont understand why you cant grasp that a big rolling basketball is fast, but a lil ole rolling golf ball is quick.
Scientifically, they are 2 very different things.
Physics is the oldest science in the world.
Physics is defined, at all of my elite universities, as "how matter moves thru space".
If you hate "story problems" and arent very high functioning, then you need to take astronomy. Astronomy is 100percent physics and is classified as a physics class at every major university. If you are too afraid to take physics 1, physics 2, particle/quantum physics where you learn about particle accelerator labs..........then you need to take astronomy.
In the movie Jurassic park, jeff goldblum played a physicist. But it was very pointless for a physicist to be there. Physics played no role there. Only evolutionary biologists and paleontologists and historical scenario scientists.
The sport of billiards, or low class ppl call it "playin pool" is 100% physics because you are dealing with how an object moves through space.
EVERY SINGLE BIT OF PHYSICS CAN BE EXEMPLIFIED AND EXONERATED BY USING A BICYCLE. THERE IS NO TOPIC IN PHYSICS THAT CANNOT BE DISPLAYED OR PORTRAYED BY USING A BICYCLE. EVEN THE TOPIC OF VERTIGO, WHICH IS A GIGANTIC TOPIC IN PHYSICS, CAN BE PUBLICLY FUMIGATED WITH A BICYCLE.
