A person's lower leg is 1 meter long and has a mass of 9.5kg. It is allowed to swing freely. If the leg is treated as a simple pendulum with a length equal to the length of the leg, using T = 2pi square root of L/g root of 2/3

Then, estimate the typical human walking speed based on your result, making clear any assumptions/estimates you make.
