1. The document analyzes the energy transfers and power requirements for short distance running races like sprints and hurdle races. 2. It calculates the work, kinetic energy, air resistance, and power needed at different phases of a 100m sprint and 110m hurdle race for an athlete with a mass of 70kg. 3. The total energy required for the 110m hurdle race is calculated to be 15,491 joules, with a power output of 1,198 watts to complete the race in the given time.
