On flat ground, a 70-kg person requires about 300 W of metabolic power to walk at a steady pace of 5.0 km/h (1.4 m/s). Using the
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C 350W

Explanation:

Given power output to walk on a flat ground to be 300W, h = 0.05x, v = 1.4m/s

m = 70kg and g =9.8m/s².

x = horizontal distance covered

Total energy used = potential energy used in climbing and the energy used in a walking the horizontal distance.

E = mgh + 300t

Where t is the time taken to cover the distance

x = vt and h = 0.05vt

So

E = mg×0.05×vt + 300t

Substituting respective values

E = 70×9.8×0.05×1.4t +300t = 348t

P = E/t = 348W ≈ 350W.
