Calculate how many kg an 80 kg person who replaces 30 minutes/day will lose in a year in front of the TV for 30 minutes of brisk walking. Use the following data: Expense calories during the walk (5 km/h) = 0.063 kcal/kg/minute. Calorie expenditure watching TV = 0.028 kcal/kg/min. 1 kg of weight lost is equivalent to about 7000 kcal.

Only about 20% of the Calories we consume are used for mechanical work (i.e., moving the body around). Estimate how many granola bars (150 Cal per bar) an 85 kg person will burn if they climb vertically up theside of the Empire State Building. height of Empire State Building, h = 443 m unit conversion: 1 Cal = 4184 Joules
The human body is not perfectly efficient. In fact, only about 20% of the Calories we consume are used for mechanical work (i.e., moving the body around).

A person consumes about 2600 Cal a day. 1 Cal = 4186 J, and 1 kWh = 860 Cal. What is this energy in kilowatt-hours? Express your answer using two significant figures.
Consider the thermodynamic process, A->B->C->A shown above. The heat absorbed during A->B is 591J. If the change in internal energy during B->C is 4146J, What is the change in internal energy in SI units during C->A? Express only the number of your answer with 4 significant figures.
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)

A monatomic ideal gas composed of N atoms, originally with volume V₂ and at pressure po and temperature To, expands at constant pressure to five times its initial volume ( Vfinal = 5V). Use kB for Boltzmann's constant.
A PHYS 1510 student was working on a robotics project. The joints on the machine they were building were powered by pistons. Based on how hot the machine was getting, the student was able to figure out that 2.34 J of thermal energy was produced by every piston every time the piston was fully extended to 0.4064 m. What was the force of friction that the piston experienced during every extension? Assume friction is the only source of thermal energy. Include units in Sl.

A 53−kg person drinks5.4×102g of milk, which has a caloric value of approximately 3.0 kJ/g.If only 17 percent of the energy in milk is converted to mechanical work, how high (in meters) can the person climb based on this energy intake? Enter your answer in scientific notation. Hint: The work done in ascending is given by mgh, where m is the mass (in kg), g is the gravitational acceleration(9.8 m/s2), and h is the height (in meters).
