Let's say we have a 100 kg sprinter capable of anaerobically producing 20 watt/kg for up to 10s.
How fast could they reach 100 m from a standing start, in a vacuum, with perfect traction?
Having forgotten how to set up simple integrals, I've consulted the interwebs, which claim d = (8*P/9*m)^1/2 * t^3/2
Assuming I can still do algebra, that's t = (d / (8P/9m)^1/2)^2/3 ~= a little over 8 sec ?
