Why is it easier to start a fire with kindling rather than with large sticks and logs of the same kind of wood?
The metabolic power for typing is 150 W for Lili, not a lot as you know probably. How long does it take to burn off the energy in a slice of apple pie, which energy content is 1680 kJ (400 food calorie), in minutes?
(Try to stay active, working/studying in front of a computer is not the best exercise you can do for your body.)
Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
A woman expends 95 kJ of energy in walking a kilometer. The energy is supplied by the metabolic breakdown of food intake and has a 35 percent efficiency. If the woman drives a car over the same distance, how much energy is used if the car gets 8.8 km per liter of gasoline (approximately 20 mi/gal)? The density of gasoline is 0.71 g/mL, and its enthalpy of combustion is 49 kJ/g. Enter your answer in scientific notation.
Compare the efficiencies of the two processes.
kJ (driving)/ kJ (walking)

- You observe a grasshopper eating a blade of grass. You know that each blade of grass contains 100 units of energy. You then measure the energy level of the grasshopper using a fancy device.

As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10 km/h (which uses up energy at the rate of 700 W), or you could walk it leisurely at 3.0 km/h (which uses energy at 290 W).
