Larger animals use proportionately less energy than smaller animals; that is, it takes less energy per kg to power an elephant t

marin [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

$\Delta P = 54 W$

Explanation:

As we know that 5000 kg African elephant requires 70,000 Cal for basic needs per day

so we will have

$m = 5000 kg$

$Q = 70,000 Cal$

so we have energy required per kg

$E = \frac{70,000}{5000}$

$E = 14 cal/kg$

Part a)

now we know that per kg the energy required will be same

so we have mass of the human is 68 kg

so energy required per day is given as

$Q = 68 \times 14$

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

Resting power is the rate of energy in Joule required per sec

so it is given as

$P = \frac{952 \times 4186}{24\times 3600}$

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

resting power given in the book is

$P' = 100 W$

so this is less than the power given

$\Delta P = 100 - 46$

$\Delta P = 54 W$

A marshmallow is dropped from a 5.71 meter high pedestrian bridge, and 0.921 seconds later, it lands right on the head of an uns

Natalka [10]

let the height of the person with marshmallow on her head be "h"

consider the motion of the marshmallow after it is dropped from bridge.

Y₀ = initial position of the marshmallow above the ground = 5.71 m

Y = final position of marshmallow on head of person = h

v₀ = initial velocity of the marshmallow = 0 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel for marshmallow = 0.921 sec

Using the kinematics equation

Y = Y₀ + v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

inserting the values

h = 5.71 + 0 (0.921) + (0.5) (-9.8) (0.921)²

h = 5.71 - 4.16

h = 1.55 m
