A typical human brain has a mass of 1.4 kg, which makes up about 2% of a person's mass. However, the brain requires 20% of the body's power consumption. In essence, the brain requires 10 times as much power as any other organ in the body. The average power output of the human brain is about 2.0*10^1 W. Assume that the brain's power output could be converted into mechanical work and calculate how high we could use this power to lift an apple (m=0.20kg) in one minute.
