A student spends part of his day walking between classes, during which time he expends energy at an average rate of 525 W. The remainder of the day he is sitting in class, studying in library, or resting during break; during these activities, he expends energy at an average rate of 178 W. If he expends a total of 8.3 x10^7 J energy in a 24-hour day, how much of the day did he spend walking?
Samantha wishes to maintain her weight and goes to the gym to work off the calories she consumed at breakfast that morning. She lifts a 28.0-kg barbell from shoulder level to above her head, through a vertical height of 0.550 m. How many times must she lift the barbell to make up for the 3.25 102 Calories of energy she consumed at breakfast? Note that Calories refers to food calories. (Include lowering the barbell as well.) The answer is NOT 9

A roller coaster of mass 500 kg is at its highest point in a loop traveling at a velocity of 4 m/s. The loop is 15 meters tall. Assuming 5 kJ of energy is lost between the highest and lowest point of the loop, how fast is the roller coaster traveling when it reaches the lowest point of the loop? 15.3 m/s 28 m/s O None 17.2 m/s

A bucket begins holding 25 kgs of sand. The bucket is to be lifted to the top of a 20 meter tall building by a rope with density 0.3 kg/m. However, the bucket has a hole in it, and leaks 0.3 kgs of sand each meter it is lifted. Find the work done lifting the bucket and rope to the top of the building. Use 9.8 m/s² for gravity.
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of measure equal to one thousand watts of electricity being used in one hour. Power companies use this measurement to determine your home energy bill. Consider using a bike for power: It takes 6 minutes pedalling at 24-26 volts consistently to produce just 1/10 (0.1) of a kWh. An average home uses about 25 kWh a day. How long would someone have to pedal at 24-26 Volts to power an average home?
Suppose you were able to convert the energy used by light bulbs into kinetic mechanical energy that move objects. If you burnt a 60.0 W for 2.500 hours, how far could an object be pulled if a force of 5.0x103 N is supplied?
When your hands are cold, you can rub them together to warm them. Explain the energy transformations that make this possible.
