Cost of Transport (CoT)

A

Energy required to move 1 unit mass of an organism 1 unit distance.

39
Q

Inertia

A

tendency of a mass to resist a change in motion

40

A

Large organisms

42
Q

A

Gravity, Drag, Thrust, Muscle action

43
Q

Gravity on runners

A

A

Force generated in opposition to thrust

45
Q

Muscle action on runners

A

constantly supporting our mass

46
Q

Thrust on runners

A

Energy needed for forward motion

47
Q

As velocity increases (muscles contract faster, more energy required)

A

limbs move faster

48
Q

Small runners have to work harder to move fast

A

limbs/muscles are shorter, more contact with ground

49
Q

As velocity increases, more energy can go towards generating forward motion

A

momentum increases, less contact with ground (less energy loss)

50
Q

A

Gravity, Drag, Thrust, buoyancy

51
Q

Gravity on swimmer

A

negligible factor in activity budget

52
Q

53
Q

Thrust on swimmer

A

Energy needed for forward motion

54
Q

56
Q

Pressure drag

57
Q

larger swimmers

A

experience less skin friction drag

58
Q

As velocity increases, limbs move faster

A

muscles contract faster more energy required

59
Q

Small swimmers must work harder to move faster because of

A

shorter limbs/muscles

60
Q

As velocity increases,

A

pressure drag increases

61
Q

A

more important at high velocities

65
Q

Lift on flier

A

force generated that counters gravity that increases with velocity

66
Q

larger fliers fight harder

A

against gravity due to greater mass

67
Q

larger fliers must work harder

A

to overcome drag

68
Q

Very small fliers have to work hard to move fast

A

continually beat wings to stay aloft

69
Q

This trend is reversed in medium to large fliers

70
Q

energy expense to fight

A

gravity decreases

71
Q
