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

A driver complains that his front tires are wearing
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Neither A nor B

Explanation:

The location of the where the thread wears in tire that has too high inflation is at the thread pattern center due to the reduced size of the contact patch with the load of the car resting on the central portion of the tire's contact surface

When the wear occurs at the outer edges of the tire, the load of the car rests on the outer edges as the contact patch increases due to the tire being under-inflated

Camber is the slope provided in road pavement to drain off water from the road

Roads with camber has a raised middle portion and wear due to camber includes outer-edge tread wear, inner-edge tread wear and tire feathering

True or false <br> 19. Closed systems rely on feedback from outside of the system to operate.
Furkat [3]

Answer: True

Explanation: Closed loop relies on feedback from PNS to make modifications in the movement, open loop allows action in the absence of feedback, 2. ... Closed loop can change the initial commands, open loop can not change the initial commands.

An operating gear box (transmission) has 350 hp at its input shaft while 250. hp are delivered to the output shaft. The gear box
True [87]

Answer:

Rate of Entropy =210.14 J/K-s

Explanation:

given data:

power delivered to input = 350 hp

power delivered to output = 250 hp

temperature of surface = 180°F

rate of entropy is given as

Rate\  of\ entropy  = \frac{Rate\ of \ heat\  released}{Temperature}

T = 180°F = 82°C = 355 K

Rate of heat = (350 - 250) hp = 100 hp = 74600 W

Rate of Entropy= \frac{74600}{355} = 210.14 J/K-s
