One watt is 1 joule per second. The woman in the preceding example expends 8.4 kilojoules per hour per kilogram of body mass while walking. (a) How many watts per kilogram does she use? (b) If her mass is 50 kg, how many watts does she expend?
In an attempt to conserve energy (and, let’s be honest, save some cash), Bob decides to ride his bike to work every day. He starts out by riding a half mile uphill, which slows him down by 4 miles per hour. The rest of the ride is a mile downhill, which speeds him up by 5 miles per hour. After several days, he notices that when he reaches the top of the hill, he’s exactly halfway there if you measure in terms of time. How fast would Bob be riding if the trip were on level ground?

If the population of the United States is 300 million, what is the average rate of electrical energy consumption per person? The sun transfers energy to the earth by radiation at a rate of approximately 1.0 kW per square meter of surface.

If he is able to complete three such lifts per minute, how long will it take for him to lose 0.50 kg of fat? “Burning” 1 g of fat supplies 38.8 kJ to the body; of this, 10.0% can be used by the muscles to lift the barbell. (Ignore the fat “burned” while he lowers the barbell to the floor.)arrow_forward
