- 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?arrow_forwardA food calorie is a unit of energy such that 1 food calorie = 4184 J. This means that a person that burns energy with a power of 4184 W would burn one food calorie every second. A more typical human power rate is 90 W (called the basal metabolic rate). At this rate, how many calories are burned per second (or alternatively, how many seconds does it take to burn 1 calorie)?arrow_forwardUnder normal conditions the human heart converts about 12.7 J of chemical energy per second into 1.27 W of mechanical power as it pumps blood throughout the body. (a) Determine the number of Calories required to power the heart for one day, given that 1 Calorie equals 4186 J. Cal (b) Metabolizing 1 kg of fat can release about 9000 Calories of energy. What mass of metabolized fat (in kg) would power the heart for one day? kgarrow_forward

Watch it Read Itarrow_forwardIn 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?arrow_forward
- 3 Kleiber's Law states that for the vast majority of animals, the metabolic rate M is a power function of the weight W, and the power is k = .t 4 (a) The Eastern gray squirrel weighs about 1 pound. How does the squirrel's metabolic rate compare with that of a 200-pound man? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The man's metabolic rate is times that of the squirrel. (b) How does a 200-pound man's metabolic rate compare with that of a 120-pound woman? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The man's metabolic rate is times that of the woman. (c) Based on your answer to part (b), would overeating (the same amount for each) be more likely to lead to weight gain for the man or for the woman? Overeating would be more likely to lead to weight gain for the man. Overeating would be more likely to lead to weight gain for the woman.arrow_forwardI'm trying to solve this question, The record time for a Tour de France cyclist to ascend the 1100-mm-high Alpe d'Huez is 37.5 minmin. The rider and his bike had a mass of 65 kgkg. At the average speed of the ride, the metabolic power to ride on level ground would be 700 WW. To this, we must add the power to make the climb. What was his total metabolic power? I arrived at 1125W, but the answer is not right. How do I need to approach this problem?arrow_forwardThe total consumption of electrical energy in the United States is about 1.0 1019 joules per year. What is the average rate of electrical energy consumption in watts? 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 this energy could be collected and converted to electrical energy with 40 % efficiency, how great an area (in square kilometers) would be required to collect the electrical energy used by the United States?arrow_forward

Your Answer:arrow_forwardWe drop a plastic ball to the floor from a height of 2.0 m and let it bounce several times. 30% of energy is lost with each bounce. How much time passes between the first and second bounce and between the second and third bounce?arrow_forwardYour brain consumes about 22 W of power, and avocados have been shown to promote brain health. If each avocado contains 310 C, and your brain were powered entirely by the energy from the avocados, how many must you eat each day?arrow_forward
