1. Suppose a woman does 600 J of work and −9400 J of heat transfer occurs into the environment in the process.
   
   **(a)** What is the decrease in her internal energy, assuming no change in temperature or consumption of food? (That is, there is no other energy transfer.)
   \[
   \Delta E_{int} = \_\_\_ \checkmark \_\_\_ \text{ J}
   \]

   **(b)** The internal energy is stored energy due to food intake. Treating the change in internal energy as the input energy and work done as output, what is her efficiency?
   \[
   Efficiency, \ Eff = \_\_\_\checkmark \_\_ \%
   \]

   **(c)** What physics law did you use in this problem?
   - [ ] Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics
   - [ ] First Law of Thermodynamics
   - [ ] Second Law of Thermodynamics
