It is 6.00 km from your home to the physics lab. as part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10.0 k

m/hr (which uses up energy at the rate of 700 w ), or you could walk it leisurely at 3.00 km/hr (which uses energy at 290 w ).

<span>1.) It is 6.00km from your home to the physics lab. As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10.0km/hr (which uses up energy at the rate of 700W ), or you could walk it leisurely at 3.00km/hr (which uses energy at 290 W). A.)Which choice would burn up more energy? running or walking? b.)How much energy (in joules) would it burn? c.)Why is it that the more intense exercise actually burns up less energy than the less intense one? Follow 2 answers Report Abuse Answers billrussell42 Best Answer: running, at 10 km/hour for 6 km is 6 km / 10 km/hour = 0.6 hour or 36 min energy used is 700 watts or 700 joules/s x 36 min x 60s/min = 1.512e6 joules or 1.5 MJ walking, at 3 km/hour for 6 km 6 km / 3 km/hour = 2 hour or 120 min energy used is 290 watts or 290 joules/s x 120 min x 60s/min = 1.872e6 joules or 1.8 MJ C) should be obvious PS, this has nothing to do with potential energy. billrussell42 · 5 years ago 0 Thumbs up 1 Thumbs down Report Abuse Comment Simon van Dijk I assume the watt consumption is per hour. Then running 6km at 10.0 km/h results in 700*6/10 = 420 w.h and walking in 290*6/3 = 580 w.h So walking would burn up more energy (kwh) b) 1 kilowatt hour = 3 600 000 joules so 420 wh = 0.42 kwh = 1.51.10^6 joule c) when you put more effort in making the distance your energy is used more efficient.

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach mercury from the sun, a distance of 6.02 × 107 km?
Ksju [112]
Light travels at a speed of:
c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s
The distance between Mercury and Sun is S=6.02 \cdot 10^7 km=6.02 \cdot 10^{10} m, so the time it takes is
t= \frac{S}{c}= \frac{6.02 \cdot 10^{10} m}{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}  =200.7 s
if we want to convert this into minutes, keeping in mind that 1 min = 60 seconds, we should divide this value by 60:
t= \frac{200.7 s}{60 s/min}=3.34 min

How long does it take a person to skate the width of a hockey rink (85 feet) at a constant speed of 15 feet per second?
Zepler [3.9K]
S(travel distance)=85 ft
v (velocity)=15 ft/s
-----------------------------------
t (time)=?

Calculate the time with the formula for the velocity:
v=S/t
t=S/v
t=85 ft/(15 ft/s)
t=5.666s

Describe how the motion of a planet (like Mars) among the stars of the zodiac on the sky is qualitatively different from the mot
Advocard [28]

Explanation:

In the plane of the Solar System, called Ecliptic plane, Sun is at the center and all the planets including Earth are going around the Sun in their respective orbits. As seen form the Earth, Sun appear to go around it and in this process it  crosses through 12 constellations. These constellations are called as Zodiacs. Now since all the planets move in almost the same plane, they will appear in the sky to be lying near the ecliptic.

Sun's own motion is not that evident to us because of which the impact of that motion is nullified. But, motion of planet is clearly visible and it also shows in their annual round around the Sun. Here, Mars also shows retrograde motion which means it will show a back and forth motion in the sky. Because of which Mars might be visible in the same zodiac for a longer Duration as compared to the Sun.
