A world class runner can run long distances at a pace of 15 km/hour. That runner expends 800 kilocalories of energy per hour. a)

Find the power (in Watts [W]) the runner is exerting while running. b) Find the total energy (in Joules [J]) exerted by the runner in a 15 km run. c) How many Milky Way (Original Single 52.2g) chocolate bars does the runner need to buy to supply the amount of energy to complete a half-marathon (13.1 miles)? (Cite your source for the number of calories in a Milky Way bar)

Answer: a) 1.05kW b) 3.78MJ c) 5.3 bars

Explanation :

A)

Conversions give 900 kcal as 900000 x 4.2 J/cal {4.2 J/cal is the standard factor}

= 3780kJ

And 1 hour = 3600s

Therefore, Power in watts = 3780/3600 = 1.05kW = 1050W

B)

At 15km/hour a 15km run takes 1 hour.

1 hour is 3600s and the runner burns 1050 joule per second.

Energy used in 1 hour = 3600 x 1050 J/s

= 3780000 J or 3.78MJ

C)

1 mile = 1.61km so 13.1 mile is 13.1 x 1.61 = 21.1km

15km needs 3.78 MJ of energy therefore 21.1km needs 3.78 x 21.1/15 = 5.32MJ =5320 kJ

Finally,

1 Milky Way = 240000 calories = 4.2 x 240000 J = 1008000J or 1008kJ

This means that the runner needs 5320/1008 = 5.3 bars

Explanation:

A selective media is a microbiological media which only support the growth of a particular specie or types of species of microorganisms,this media acts in such a way to inhibit or hinder the growth of other microorganisms.

Differential media are media that acts to Identifying particular strains of microorganisms of similar species.

Complex media are media used for the growth of microorganisms this which contains complex or a wide range of nutrients with chemical composition which may be difficult to determine.
