How far could a 68 kg person cycle at 15 km/hr on the energy in one slice of pizza? How far could he or she walk at 5 km/hr? How far could he or she run, at 15 km/hr? Do you notice any trends in the distance values that you've calculated? Chemical energy from food is used for each of these activities. What happens to this energy that is, in what form does it end up?

Alexander, who weighs 174lb , decides to climb Mt. Krumpett, which is 5810m high. For his food supply, he decides to take nutrition bars. The label on the bars states that each 100-g bar contains 10g of fat, 40 g of protein, and 50 g of carbohydrates. One gram of fat contains 9 Calories, whereas each gram of protein and carbohydrates contains 4 Calories. Alexander wants to know exactly how many bars to pack in his backpack for the journey....

The solar energy problem was eventually solved when it was realized that the Sun contains huge amounts of H, and that H could “burn” to form He (essentially 4 protons transforming into one He nucleus), with an energy release of 0.007Mc^2. Calculate how long you could power the Sun with this energy source, compare with the “known” age of the Sun... and comment on any interesting number you get. The mass of a proton is 1.7x10e-27 kg.

If a person of mass M simply moved forward with speed V, his kinetic energy would be 12MV2. However, in addition to possessing a forward motion, various parts of his body (such as the arms and legs) undergo rotation. Therefore, his total kinetic energy is the sum of the energy from his forward motion plus the rotational kinetic energy of his arms and legs. The purpose of this problem is to see how much this rotational motion contributes to the...

A person typically contains 5.0 L of blood of density 1.05 g/mL. When at rest, it normally takes 1.0 min to pump all this blood through the body. (a) How much work does the heart do to lift all that blood from feet to brain, a sitance of 1.85 m? (b) What average power does the heart expend in the process? (c) The heart’s actual power consumption, for a resting person, is typically 6.0 W. Why is this greater than...

If a modern day Robin Hood wanted to shoot his bow on the moon, how far could the arrow go? Assume that the bow acts like a spring that can store a total of 100 J. The mass of each arrow is 0.1 kg. The mass of moon is 7.34767309 × 1022 kg and its radius is 1737.4 km. The gravitational constant G = 6.673×10-11 N m2 kg-2. Also, what would the range for each arrow be if Robin fired...

The mass of the Sun M = 2.0×1030 kg, and G = 6.67×10-11 Nm2 /kg2 a). A spaceship of mass m = 7.5×104 kg is on a circular orbit of radius r1 = 2.5×1011 m around the Sun. The captain of that spaceship decides to increase the radius of his orbit to r2 = 4.0×1011 m. What is the minimum amount of energy he has to expand using his engines to move to this higher orbit?

Please do not attempt to solve if you can not answer all!!! THE ENERGY BAR INDUSTRY In 1986, PowerBar, a firm in Berkeley, California, single-handedly created the energy bar category. Positioned as an athletic energy food, it was distributed at bike shops and events that usually involved running or biking. The target segment was the athlete who needed an efficient, effective energy source. Six years later, seeking to provide an alternative to the sticky, dry nature of the PowerBar, a...
