Assume that a 50-kg runner trips and falls with his extended hand into a wall (without
slowing down). If the bones of his two arms absorb all the forward kinetic energy, what is the
minimum speed of the runner that will cause a fracture of the arms? Assume that the length of
one arm is 1 m and that the area of each bone is 4 cm2
, on average.
aB = 16x107
Pa for the arm
a = F/A = (1.33 × 104
N) / (2.4 x 10^-4
m2
) = 5.5 x 107

Depends on the airplane. A small Cessna might have a minimum speed of 40 mph, while a large passenger aircraft might have a minimum speed of 150mph or more. The actual speed for a given airplane will vary based on weight and flap configuration.

The minimum speed for a ball rolling down an incline occurs near the top. Gravity will speed the ball up as it travels down.

Minimum speed occurs at the top, which is the same as the horizontal component of velocity anywhere along the path.
The minimum speed of a Boeing 767 to remain in flight is about 160 miles per hour. Anything below that will cause the aircraft to begin to stall.
The purpose of minimum speed limit laws is to keep traffic flowing smoothly on freeways. A very slow vehicle on a freeway can cause a traffic bottleneck.
Depends. Is it a distance run? Or a fast run? If it is distance, the stamina runner would win. If it was a track, then the speed runner would win.
The speed of light is minimum in Glass. It is because light travels at minimum speed in solids.
A projectile has minimum speed at the top of the trajectory.
their speed
Assuming the runner maintains his average speed for an hour, 3 kilometres in 30 minutes is equal to 6 kilometres per hour.
The answer depends on the distance for the race. A marathon runner could not maintain the speed attained by a sprint runner.

After running for a while, the runner will usually get tired, and tend to run slower.

In most countries, on most roads, there is no specified minimum speed.
