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. In your ranking, note any cases of equality. (Use only the symbols > or =, for example a>b=c) (a) raising the temperature of 1 kg of H,0 from 20°C to 26°C (b) raising the temperature of 2 kg of H20 from 20°C to 23°C (c) raising the temperature of 2 kg of H20 from 1°C to 4°C (d) raising the temperature of 2 kg of beryllium from O-1°C to 2°C (e) raising the temperature of 2 kg of H20 from O-1°C to 2°C

Sweating is one of the main mechanisms with which the body dissipates heat. Sweat evaporates with a latent heat of 2430 kJ/kg at body temperature, and the body can produce as much as 1.5 kg of sweat per hour. If sweating were the only heat dissipation mechanism, what would be the maximum sustainable metabolic rate, in watts, if 80% of the energy used by the body goes into waste heat?

A 55-kg student eats a 540-Calorie (540 kcal) jelly doughnut for breakfast. (a) How many joules of energy are the equivalent of one jelly doughnut? (b) How many stairs must the student climb to perform an amount of mechanical work equivalent to the food energy in one jelly doughnut? Assume the height of a single stair is 15 cm. (c) If the human body is only 25% efficient in converting chemical energy to mechanical energy, how many stairs must the woman climb to work off her breakfast?
