The mitochondrial enzyme ATP synthase plays a crucial role in the process. ATP synthase is a protein complex that is essentially a proton-driven rotary motor that produces ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate (P i). ATP serves as the energy currency of the cell and can be thought of as an available source of chemical energy.
The velocities of cricket bowlers vary between 40 and 100 mph (64 and 161 km/h). In professional cricket, a bowler in the 40â60 mph range would be said to be a slow bowler, in the 60â80 mph range a medium pace bowler, and a bowler 80 mph+ a fast bowler. In the amateur game, these distinctions would be approximately 10 mph slower. Many professional fast bowlers are able to reach speeds of over 85 mph, with a handful of bowlers in the world able to bowl at 95 mph+. The ability to react to a cricket ball travelling at 85 mph is a skill that only professional and high level amateur cricketers possess.
The average man jogs at a speed of 8.3 mph, or 100m in 27 seconds, while the average woman runs at 6.5 mph, covering 100m in 34 seconds. The fastest among us can sprint 100m at a speed of 15.9 mph, or between 13-14 seconds. That might sound fast, but it doesnât mean weâre ready to take on the champions.
