Approximately 80% of the energy used by the body must be dissipated thermally. The mechanisms available to eliminate this energy

are radiation, evaporation of sweat, evaporation from the lungs, conduction, and convection. In this question, we will focus on the evaporation of sweat alone, although all of these mechanisms are needed to survive. The latent heat of vaporization of sweat at body temperature (37 °C) is 2.42 x 10^6 J/kg and the specific heat of a body is approximately 3500 J/(kg*°C).
(A) To cool the body of a jogger of mass 90 kg by 1.8°C , how much sweat has to evaporate?

O 230 g
O 23 g

Answer:

the correct answer is c) 23 g

Explanation:

The heat lost by the runner has two parts: the heat absorbed by sweat in evaporation and the heat given off by the body

     Q_lost = - Q_absorbed

     

The latent heat is

      Q_absorbed = m L

The heat given by the body

      Q_lost = M c_{e} ΔT

       

where m is the mass of sweat and M is the mass of the body

       m L = M c_{e} ΔT

        m = M c_{e} ΔT / L

let's replace

        m = 90  3.500  1.8 / 2.42 10⁶

 

        m = 0.2343 kg

reduced to grams

        m = 0.2342 kg (1000g / 1kg)

        m = 23.42 g

 the correct answer is c) 23 g

Acceleration is positive when you are speeding up.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

B Negative

Explanation:

Its negative because when your going 25 mph your moving faster and when your coming up to the stop sign you will start to slow down going 10 mph then 0 mph when you reach the stop sign so it will be negative.

The Skeleton does a surprising number of things. What are the three main Ones? lol, it's due today at 12:59 pm I need help.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Support

Posture

Protection

Explanation:

Support – the skeleton keeps the body upright and provides a framework for muscle and tissue attachment.

Posture – the skeleton gives the correct shape to our body.

Protection – the bones of the skeleton protect the internal organs and reduce the risk of injury on impact.

An electron is accelerated through 2400 V from rest and then enters a region in which there is a uniform 1.70 T magnetic field.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v be the velocity acquired by electron in electric field

V q = 1/2 m v²

V is potential difference applied on charge q , m is mass of charge , v is velocity acquired

2400 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ = .5 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v²

v² = 844 x 10¹²

v = 29.05 x 10⁶ m /s

Maximum force will be exerted on moving electron when it moves perpendicular to magnetic field .

Maximum force = Bqv , where B is magnetic field , q is charge on electron and v is velocity of electron

= 1.7 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 29.05 x 10⁶

= 79.02 x 10⁻¹³ N .

Minimum force will be zero when electron moves along the direction of magnetic field .
