Stair Climbing Machine

There are many exercise machines in today’s world there but one of the most popular seems to be the stair climber machine. If a stair climber machine is going to be designed the information needed to be collected would vary widely. One would need to compute its angle of incline. Other things needed are the maximum and minimum velocities, the distance, vertical height of the machine, and a stopwatch to count the amount of time a person uses it. To calculate the weight of a person in Newtons a scale would be used. The reason the angle of incline of the machine is so important is to ensure the highest amount of welfare as possible. An angle that is too steep will make scaling the stairs dangerous to the user. The maximum height needs to be taken into consideration so that the machine is not too large and not too minuscule. It would also assist in the calculation of the power. The person using the machine is allowed to change the velocity of the stairs. The minimum velocity will be very low speed and maximum will be mildly fast. The distance of the step machine must be obtained to calculate the distance people used it to climb the stairs. To calculate power, it would be the time the person used the machine and the person’s weight and distance climbed. The velocity is also required to set on the machine. In order to know how much power was developed by a the stair climbing machine you would have to know how much time work was done. The machine then would count how much time you were on the machine while you were doing that work and divide that into the work. In order for the machine to know how much work you did it would have to know the change in kinetic energy that you created. In order to find the change in kinetic energy the person would have to input their mass and the machine would also have to record the initial and final velocity that the individual was traveling. This is all needed in order to properly construct a stair climbing machine.
