Question
Following vigorous exercise, the body temperature of an 80.0-kg person is 40.0ºC . At what rate in watts must the person transfer thermal energy to reduce the the body temperature to 37.0ºC in 30.0 min, assuming the body continues to produce energy at the rate of 150 W?
⎝1 watt = 1 joule/second or 1 W = 1 J/s ⎞
