Best Answer

PEstep ≈ 0.12 m x 9.81 m/s2 x 73 kg = 85.9 J/step

This implies that about 1/2 of the mechanical energy required to lift your body during one

step is lost (dissipated) when walking (friction, muscle efficacy, etc).

What kind of energy is it when you go up a hill?

when you are going up a hill by walking you are converting your potential energy into kinetic energy with every step and also storing more and more potential energy with every step if you stop after every step but if you are walking with a certain velocity you possess kinetic energy . At the top of the hill when you stop you possess maximum potential energy.

What is step potential in quantum mechanics?

The potential step is the barrier for particles to enter in to some region ,for example ,consider an electron with incident energy greater than the potential energy of an atoms ,will easily penetrate in to the atom an will comes out with some net changes in its energy and wave function , On other hand the electron having smaller energy than the potential of atom can not penetrates in to the atom ,it will bounces back from the atom , so here the neutral atom behaves as a potential step (barrier) BY SAMI UL HAQ IIUI , DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS (NANO TECHNOLOGY ) MOB 00923038400484 SAMI786NANOTECH@GMAIL.COM
