- A pound of body fat stores an amount of chemical energy equivalent to 3500 Cal. When sleeping, the average adult burns or expends about 0.45 Cal/h for every pound of body weight. How many Calories would a 134 lb person burn during 6 hours of sleep? (Note that 1 Cal = 1 kcal.)arrow_forwardHow many kilocalories does a runner expend when he runs for 3.0 h and uses 620 Cal/h? How many pieces of pizza that each contain 13 g of protein, 15 g of fat, and 33 g of carbohydrates could be eaten after the race to replenish these Calories? (Do not round the total number of kcal to the appropriate signifcant figures when you report your answer. Round to the nearest whole slice of pizza.) [Hint: One gram of protein or one gram of carbohydrate typically releases about 4 Cal/g, while fat releases 9 Cal/g.] The runner expends kcal and can eat pieces of pizza.arrow_forwardOne hour of bicycle riding can require 500-900 kcal of energy, depending on the speed, the terrain, and the weight of the racer.
