The rate at which a resting person converts food energy is called one’s basal metabolic rate (BMR). Assume that the resulting internal energy leaves a person’s body by radiation and convection of dry air. When you jog, most of the food energy you burn above your BMR becomes internalenergy that would raise your body temperature if it were not eliminated. Assume that evaporation of perspiration is the mechanism for eliminating this energy. Suppose a person is jogging for “maximum fat burning,” converting food energy at the rate 400 kcal/h above his BMR, and putting out energy by work at the rate 60.0 W. Assume that the heat of evaporation of water at body temperature is equal to its heat of vaporization at 100°C. (a) Determine the hourly rate at which water must evaporate from his skin. (b) When you metabolize fat, the hydrogen atoms in the fat molecule are transferred to oxygen to form water.

5. How many Joules of energy is in one kilowatt hour? Our classroom has about 20 lights, each with 50 W power rating. How many hours could a generator operating at 100% efficiency supply this power from one gallon of gasoline? If the generator operated at a realistic efficiency of 20%?
Beryllium has roughly one-half the specific heat of liquid water (H20). Rank the quantities of energy input required to produce the following changes from the largest to the smallest.

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)

The specific heat capacity of a 1 point substance is defined as: * the amount of energy required for substance of 1 kg to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the amount of energy for a substance required to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the volume of substance to store 1 °C of heat.

The intensity of solar radiation above the earth’s atmosphere is about 1300 W/m2. The earth’s average surface temperature is relatively constant over geological time spans, so the energy the earth receives from the sun must be balanced by energy the earth reradiates in all directions into space. If the earth were to have a uniform temperature over its entire surface, what would the temperature be?
On a sunny day when the outside temperature is 34.0°C, a car parked in the sun is receiving 812 watts/m2 of incoming solar radiation (Insolation). Because the car radiates heat off of a greater surface area, the car in-turn radiates off heat at a rate of 169 watts/m². If the car is considered a perfect absorber and emitter of radiative energy, what will the equilibrium temperature inside the car be? °C
Is increasing the temperature of the surroundings the only effect of this "lost" kinetic energy? If the ground is soft, a hard steel ball like this might cause the ground to deform. It does work on the ground while moving. But, once everything comes to a stop we find the kinetic energy just before impact has been converted to thermal energy. The temperature of the affected areas increases, though slightly. Eventually, this thermal energy spreads into the atmosphere and surrounding areas, making any temperature changes undetectable. We might instead drop the ball onto a hard surface. The ball itself might deform or break, and some of the kinetic energy might go into the motion of fragment particles that fly in all directions. But again, in the end, all the kinetic energy is dissipated into thermal energy. What about a case where a ball bounces? Say a rubber ball, with a mass of 0.020 kg, is dropped from rest at a height of 1.75 m. It rebounds off the floor, and reaches a maximum height…
