Percent error is the difference between the experimental value and theoretical value and measures the accuracy of the result found. The larger the error, lesser is the accuracy and vice versa.

Solution:

It is a mathematical way of showing accuracy

The higher the percent error, the less accurate the data set,

Compare the maximum rate of heat transfer to the basal metabolic rate by converting a bmr of 88 kcal/hr into watts. what is the

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Explanation :

It is given that,

BMR i.e basal metabolic rate is 88 kcal/hr. So, BMR in watts is converted by the following :

We know that, 1 kilocalorie = 4184 joules

So, $1\ kcal/h=\dfrac{1\times 4184\ J}{3600\ sec}$

$1\ kcal/h=1.16\ J/sec$

J/sec is nothing but watts.

So, $1\ kcal/h=1.16\ watts$

and $88\ kcal/h=88\times 1.16\ watts = 102.08\ watts$

So, it can be seen that the body can accommodate a modes amount of activity in hot weather but strenuous activity would increase the metabolic rate above the body's ability to remove heat.
