Question
Assume 1 serving of fried chicken is 320 calories. Consider that a food calorie is equal to about 4 kJ of energy, how much energy in a serving size of the fried chicken compares in other situations.
For example, how does this compare to the amount of energy that's necessary to lift a fully-loaded pickup truck up three meters above the ground? Let's say the truck has a mass of 2500 kg.
Create a Energy-Interaction Model, and determine how much energy is necessary to lift the truck.

- You have an object of mass 30.6 kg. If it is moving at a speed of 7.1 m/s and is a distance of 4.3 m above the ground, what is the total energy of the object, in Joules? (Use the ground as your zero for gravitational potential energy.) Your Answer: Answerarrow_forwardYour answer is partially correct. The summit of a mountain is 5540 m above sea level. (a) How much energy would a 87 kg climber expend against the gravitational force on him in climbing to the summit from sea level? (b) How many candy bars, at 2.13 MJ per bar, would supply an energy equivalent to this? Your answer should suggest that work done against the gravitational force is a very small part of the energy expended in climbing a mountain.
