number of axons in the sciatic nerve‚ speed of transmission and degree of myelination can all have an effect on the sciatic nerve and therefore the peak contractile force of B. Marinus.

When the object is dropped the force of gravity initially is 100% but as it falls the air resistance becomes stronger making the gravity weaker and at one stage there will be terminal velocity.
