What kind of power would you need to overcome this obstacle? Why is this such a difficult thing to do? Well, a ninja trying to climb this ladder not only has to do something like a pull-up (no easy feat) he has to end the pull-up with enough vertical velocity so that he can be “airborne” long enough for him to move the bar to the next level. Really, this is the part that makes it tough and this is the part that I want to calculate the power for. Let’s go.
This journal is a multi-disciplinary focus for activities relating to the development, assessment and management of energy-related programs. It is hoped that this publication will prove to be an important factor in raising the standards of discussions, analyses, and evaluations relating to energy programs. The following are among the topical areas on which important contributions are solicited: input-output analyses relating to energy-consuming systems, careful resource or reserve assessments of all types, energy-conservation measures and their implementations, incisive evaluation of energy-systems managements, environmental-impact assessments, and policy alternatives stressing economic implications.
