A weightlifter works out at the gym each day. Part of her routine is to lie on her back and lift a 43 kg barbell straight up fro

m chest height to full arm extension, a distance of 0.55 m . Part A: How much work does the weightlifter do to lift the barbell one time? Part B: If the weightlifter does 23 repetitions a day, what total energy does she expend on lifting, assuming a typical efficiency for energy use by the body? Part C: How many 490 Calorie donuts can she eat a day to supply that energy

Answer:

A. 231.77 J

B. 5330.71 J

C. 46 donuts

Explanation:

A. To lift the barbell once, she will have to extend it the full length of her arm. The work done will then be:

W = F * d

Where the force is the weight of the barbell.

F = m * g

Hence, the work done in lifting the barbell is:

W = m * g * d

W = 43 * 9.8 * 0.55

W = 231.77 J

B. If she does 23 repetitions, the total energy she expend will be equal to the Potential energy when the barbell is lifted multiplied by 23:

E = 23 * m * g * d

E = 23 * 231.77

E = 5330.71 J

C. 1 Joule = 4.184 calories

5330.71 Joules = 5330.71 * 4.184 = 22303.69

If 1 donut contains 490 calories, the number of donuts she will need will be:

N = 22303.69/490 = 45.5 donuts or 46 donuts

A light spring obeys Hooke's law. The spring's unstretched length is 34.0 cm. One end of the spring is attached to the top of a
sleet_krkn [62]

When the spring is extended by 44.5 cm - 34.0 cm = 10.5 cm = 0.105 m, it exerts a restoring force with magnitude R such that the net force on the mass is

∑ F = R - mg = 0

where mg = weight of the mass = (7.00 kg) g = 68.6 N.

It follows that R = 68.6 N, and by Hooke's law, the spring constant is k such that

k (0.105 m) = 68.6 N   ⇒   k = (68.6 N) / (0.105 m) ≈ 653 N/m
