Normally the rate at which you expend energy during a brisk walk is 3.6 Calories per minute. (A Calorie is the common unit of fo

od energy, equal to 4184.1 J.) How long do you have to walk to produce the same amount of energy as a 150 W lightbulb that is lit for 5.8 hours?

Answer:

3.5 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

During a brisk walk, rate at which energy is expended is P(expend) = 3.6 calories per min

1 calorie = 4184.1 J

Energy produced by bulb is P(bulb) = 150W

time = 5.8 hrs

Convvert 5.8 hrs to secs. we have

t = 5.8*3600

t= 20880 secs

Power = Energy/time

150 = energy / 20880

Energy = 150 * 20880

= 3132000J

Convert the rate at which cv h energy is expended into joules per second, we have

(3.6 * 4184.1)/60

P(expend) = 251J/s

= 251W

Recall that P = E/t

t = E/p

t = 3132000/251

t = 12478 secs

Convert secs to hour

t = 12478/ 3600

t= 3.5 hours

The time requtied to produce the s\me amount of energy as 150W bulb that lights up 5..8hrs is t = 3.5 hrs

Kristen is 64 inches tall, and she stands 12 feet away from a streetlight. If she casts an 82-inch-long shadow, how tall is the
o-na [289]

Answer:

176.39 inches or

14.70 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the right triangle made by Kristen, ground and shadow.

This triangle has one leg as 64 inches.

Next consider the right triangle formed by street light, ground upto shadow tip.

The two triangles have common angle of elevation and also another angle as 90 degrees.

Hence the two triangles would be similar

Also if A is the angle made by hypotenuse of both triangles with the ground we have

tanx=\frac{64}{82}

This value also equals by bigger triangle as

tanx=\frac{h}{82+12(12)}=\frac{h}{226}

From these two we get

h = height of street light =\frac{226(64)}{82} =176.39
