Assuming a typical efficiency for energy use by the body, how many slices of pizza must you eat to walk for 2.5 h at a speed of

5.0 km/h? Assume that your mass is 68 kg, metabolic power of 68 kg individual walking at 5 km/h is 380 W, and the energy content of slice of pizza is 1260 kJ.

Answer:

2.7 Pizzas.

Explanation:

The power required to walk through 5km in 1 hour is 380W.

A watt is basically Jules per second, then we need to standardized this measurement to second.

5km/hr is equal to,

\frac{5km}{hr}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=1.389m/s

Walking by 2.5 hours is equal to a distance of,

d=v*t=1.389*(2.5*3600) = 12500m

The total energy required then would be,

E = \frac{380J}{1.389m/s}(12500)=3.4199*10^6J

Then we know that one pizza slice gives 1260*10^3J of energy, the total pizza needed are,

\eta = \frac{3.4199*10^6}{1260*10^3} = 2.7142

<em>Then you need to buy 3 pizza.</em>

A 12-pack of Omni-Cola (mass 4.30 kg) is initially at rest ona horizontal floor. It is then pushed in a straight line for1.20 m
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

a)  W = 46.8 J  and b)   v = 3.84 m/s

Explanation:

The energy work theorem states that the work done on the system is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

    W = ΔK = k_{f} -K₀

a) work is the scalar product of force by distance

    W = F . d

Bold indicates vectors. In this case the dog applies a force in the direction of the displacement, so the angle between the force and the displacement is zero, therefore, the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product.

    W = F d cos θ

    W = 39.0 1.20 cos 0

    W = 46.8 J

b) zero initial kinetic language because the package is stopped

    W -W_{fr} = k_{f} -K₀

    W - fr d= ½ m v² - 0

    W - μ N d = ½ m v

   on the horizontal surface using Newton's second law

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

 

     W - μ mg d = ½ m v

    v² = (W -μ mg d) 2/m  

    v = √(W -μ mg d) 2/m

    v = √[(46.8 -  0.30 4.30 9.8 1.20) 2/4.3 ]

    v = √(31.63 2/4.3)

    v = 3.84 m/s

You’ve made the hypothesis that the stepper the slope , the faster a ball will be rolling when it reaches the bottom .
BigorU [14]

Answer:

B) how steep the slope is

Explanation:

Because you have to know how is the influence of the steep of the slope in the time that a ball reaches the bottom. The steep of the slope is the variable that you would have to change in an experiment.

I hope this is useful for you

A 250 g object is hung onto a spring. It stretches 18 cm. Find the spring's spring constant
Juliette [100K]
<h2>Answer: 13.61 N/m</h2>

Hooke's law establishes that the elongation of a spring is directly proportional to the modulus of the force F applied to it, <u>as long as the spring is not permanently deformed</u>:

F=k (x-x_{o})    (1)

Where:

k is the elastic constant of the spring. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring.

x_{o} is the length of the spring without applying force.

x is the length of the spring with the force applied.

According to this, we have a spring where only the force due gravity is applied.

In other words, the force applied is the weigth W of the block:

W=m.g   (2)

Where m=250g=0.25kg is the mass of the block and g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the gravity acceleration.

W=(0.25kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})   (3)

W=2.45N   (4)

Knowing the force applied W and x=18cm=0.18m and x_{o}=0, we can substitute the values in equation (1) and find k:

W=k (x-x_{o})    (5)

2.45N=k (0.18m-0m)    (6)

<u>Finally:</u>

k=13.61\frac{N}{m}
