Tarzan, whose mass is 103 kg, is hanging at rest from a tree limb. Then he lets go and falls to the ground. Just before he lets go, his center of mass is at a height 2.4 m above the ground and the bottom of his dangling feet are at a height 1.5 above the ground. When he first hits the ground he has dropped a distance 1.5, so his center of mass is (2.4 - 1.5) above the ground. Then his knees bend and he ends up at rest in a crouched position with his center of mass a height 0.3 above the ground. Required:
Consider the real system. What is the net change in internal energy for Tarzan from just before his feet touch to the ground to when he is in the crouched position?

i'm just gonna leave this comment here, so i can get a challange done-

explanation:

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
