Using data from Table 7.5, calculate the daily energy needs of a person who sleeps for 7.00 h, walks for 2.00 h, attends classes for 4.00 h, cycles for 2.00 h, sits relaxed for 3.00 h, and studies for 6.00 h. (Studying consumes energy at the same rate as sitting in class.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The daily energy needs of a person is \(3799.62{\rm{ kcal}}\).

Step by step solution

01

Work

Useful work: Useful work includes all the work done by a person, because these are accomplished by exerting forces (nonconservative in nature) on the outside work.

02

Person’s daily energy needed 

Daily energy need of a person is,

\(E = {P_{sl}} \times {T_{sl}} + {P_w} \times {T_w} + {P_{ac}} \times {T_{ac}} + {P_{cy}} \times {T_{cy}} + {P_s} \times {T_s} + {P_{st}} \times {T_{st}}\)

Here,\({P_{sl}}\)is the power consumed in sleeping\(\left( {{P_{sl}} = 83{\rm{ W}}} \right)\),\({T_{sl}}\)is the time spent in sleeping\(\left( {{T_{sl}} = 7.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\),\({P_w}\)is the power consumed in walking\(\left( {{P_w} = 280{\rm{ W}}} \right)\),\({T_w}\)is the time spent in walking\(\left( {{T_w} = 2.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\),\({P_{ac}}\)is the power consumed in attending classes\(\left( {{P_{ac}} = 210{\rm{ W}}} \right)\),\({T_{ac}}\)is the time spent in attending classes\(\left( {{T_{ac}} = 4.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\),\({P_{cy}}\)is the power consumed in cycling\(\left( {{P_{cy}} = 400{\rm{ W}}} \right)\),\({T_{cy}}\)is the time spent in cycling\(\left( {{T_{cy}} = 2.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\),\({P_s}\)is the power consumed in sitting relaxed\(\left( {{{\rm{P}}_{\rm{s}}}{\rm{ = 125 W}}} \right)\),\({T_s}\)is the time spent in sitting relaxed\(\left( {{T_s} = 3.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\),\({P_{st}}\)is the power consumed in studying\(\left( {{P_{st}} = 210{\rm{ W}}} \right)\), and\({T_{st}}\)is the time spent in studying \(\left( {{T_{st}} = 6.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\).

Putting all known values,

\(\begin{aligned}E &= \left( \begin{aligned}{l}\left( {83{\rm{ W}}} \right) \times \left( {7.00{\rm{ h}}} \right) + \left( {280{\rm{ W}}} \right) \times \left( {2.00{\rm{ h}}} \right) + \left( {{\rm{210 W}}} \right){\rm{ \times }}\left( {{\rm{4}}{\rm{.00 h}}} \right) + \\\left( {{\rm{400 W}}} \right) \times \left( {2.00{\rm{ h}}} \right) + \left( {125{\rm{ W}}} \right) \times \left( {3.00{\rm{ h}}} \right) + \left( {210{\rm{ W}}} \right) \times \left( {6.00{\rm{ h}}} \right)\end{aligned} \right)\\ &= 4416{\rm{ W}} \cdot {\rm{h}} \times \left( {\frac{{1{\rm{ J}}/{\rm{s}}}}{{1{\rm{ W}}}}} \right) \times \left( {\frac{{3600{\rm{ s}}}}{{1{\rm{ hr}}}}} \right)\\ &= 15897600{\rm{ J}} \times \left( {\frac{{{\rm{1 kcal}}}}{{4184{\rm{ J}}}}} \right)\\ &= 3799.62{\rm{ kcal}}\end{aligned}\)

Therefore, the required daily energy needs of a person is \(3799.62{\rm{ kcal}}\).

List four different forms or types of energy. Give one example of a conversion from each of these forms to another form.

Shivering is an involuntary response to lowered body temperature. What is the efficiency of the body when shivering, and is this a desirable value?

(a) Calculate the power per square meter reaching Earth’s upper atmosphere from the Sun. (Take the power output of the Sun to be\(4.00 \times {10^{26}}{\rm{ W}}\).)

(b) Part of this is absorbed and reflected by the atmosphere, so that a maximum of\(1.30{\rm{ kW}}/{{\rm{m}}^2}\)reaches Earth’s surface. Calculate the area in\({\rm{k}}{{\rm{m}}^2}\)of solar energy collectors needed to replace an electric power plant that generates\(750{\rm{ MW}}\)if the collectors convert an average of\(2.00\% \)of the maximum power into electricity. (This small conversion efficiency is due to the devices themselves, and the fact that the sun is directly overhead only briefly.) With the same assumptions, what area would be needed to meet the United States’ energy needs\(\left( {1.05 \times {{10}^{20}}{\rm{ J}}} \right)\)? Australia’s energy needs\(\left( {5.4 \times {{10}^{18}}{\rm{ J}}} \right)\)? China’s energy needs\(\left( {6.3 \times {{10}^{19}}{\rm{ J}}} \right)\)? (These energy consumption values are from 2006.)

Body fat is metabolized, supplying 9.30 kcal/g, when dietary intake is less than needed to fuel metabolism. The manufacturers of an exercise bicycle claim that you can lose 0.500 kg of fat per day by vigorously exercising for 2.00 h per day on their machine.

(a) How many kcal are supplied by the metabolization of 0.500 kg of fat?

(b) Calculate the kcal/ min that you would have to utilize to metabolize fat at the rate of 0.500 kg in 2.00 h.

(c) What is unreasonable about the results?

(d) Which premise is unreasonable, or which premises are inconsistent?

The 70.0-kg swimmer in Figure 7.44 starts a race with an initial velocity of 1.25 m/s and exerts an average force of 80.0 N backward with his arms during each 1.80 m long stroke.

(a) What is his initial acceleration if water resistance is 45.0 N?

(b) What is the subsequent average resistance force from the water during the 5.00 s it takes him to reach his top velocity of 2.50 m/s?

(c) Discuss whether water resistance seems to increase linearly with velocity.
