A man skis down a slope. His initial elevation was 150 m and his velocity at the bottom of the slope is 17 m/s. What percentage of his initial potential energy was consumed due to friction and air resistance? Use the accounting equation in your calculations.
In direct calorimetry, a person is placed in a large, water-insulated chamber. The chamber is kept at a constant temperature. While in the chamber, the subject is asked to perform a number of normal activities, such as eating, sleeping, and exercising. The rate of heat released from the subject’s body can be measured by the rate of heat gain by the water bath. Would direct calorimetry be a practical way to measure metabolic rate? Why or why not?A person is placed inside a calorimetric chamber for 24 hours. During this time, the 660-gallon water bath heats up by 3.2°F. What is the subject’s metabolic rate during this period? Report your answer in kcal/day. Assume that there is no heat loss from the water to the surroundings.

- Upon reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere, the bottom of a space shuttle heats up to dangerous levels as the craft slows for landing. If the velocity of the shuttle is 28,500 km/hr at the beginning of reentry and 370 km/hr just prior to landing, how much energy is lost as heat? The shuttle has a mass of 90,000 kg.
