gc textbook chapter 8 Rotational Motion (id: a78c718ff)

[问答题]
Mammals that depend onye (q uejmftvw8gz ck:* w8135 being fdljayeq 0y2z*:y )n1able to run fast have slender lower legs with flesh and muscle concentrated high, close to the body (Fig. 8–34). On the basis of rotational dynamics, explain why tz)yf:l n21*yya0j edqhis distribution of mass is advantageous.

参考答案:

The legs have a lower moment of inertia when the leg mass is concentrated next to the body.  That means the legs will require less torque to have a given angular acceleration, or, alternatively, a higher angular acceleration can be developed.  Thus the animal can run fast.
