energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for __________ of total energy expenditure.

Physics
1 answer:
olga_2 [115]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for 20% of total energy expenditure.

Explanation:

The total amount of energy your body uses daily is usually divided as follows:

1. Your Basal Metabolic Rate at rest  (50-70%)

Basal Metabolic Rate is the number of calories required to keep your body      functioning at rest

2. Consumption by your daily physical activities (20%)

3. Energy to digest food. (10-20%)

This energy has to be deducted from the overall energy content of the food itself.

Then, the answer is:

Energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for 20% of total energy expenditure.

A scuba diver and her gear displace a volume of 68.5 L and have a total mass of 71.8 kg . Part A What is the buoyant force on th
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

A) Fb = 671.3 N

B) The diver will sink.

Explanation:

A)

The buoyant force applied on an object by a fluid is given by the following formula:

Fb = Vρg

where,

Fb = Buoyant Force = ?

V = Volume of the water displaced by the object = 68.5 L = 0.0685 m³

ρ = Density of Water = 1000 kg/m³

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

Fb = (0.0685 m³)(1000 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>Fb = 671.3 N</u>

B)

Now, in order to find out whether the diver sinks or float, we need to find weight of the diver with gear.

W = mg = (71.8 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

W = 703.64 N

Since, W > Fb. Therefore, the downward force of weight will make the diver sink.

<u>The diver will sink.</u>

An artillery shell is launched on a flat, horizontal field at an angle of α = 31.7° with respect to the horizontal and with an i
kompoz [17]

Answer:193.90 m/s

Explanation:

Given

launch angle \theta =31.7^{\circ}

launch velocity v_0=202 m/s

Horizontal velocity of the shell after t=18.96 s

time of flight of Projectile T=\frac{2u\sin \theta }{g}

T={\frac2\times 202\sin 31.7}{9.8}

T=21.66 s

i.e. projectile is declining as t>\frac{T}{2}

but horizontal component of velocity will remain same as there is no opposing force in horizontal direction

Horizontal component of velocity is

u_x=v_0\cos \theta =202\cdot \cos 31.7=193.90 m/s

The temperature at the surface of the Sun is approximately 5,300 K, and the temperature at the surface of the Earth is approxima
N76 [4]

Answer:

The entropy change of the Universe that occurs is 19.346 J/K

Explanation:

Given;

temperature of the sun, T_s = 5,300 K

temperature of the Earth, T_E = 293 K

radiation energy transferred by the sun to the earth, E = 6000 J

The sun loses Q of heat and therefore decreases its entropy by the amount

\delta S_{sun} = \frac{-Q}{T_s}

The earth gains Q of heat and therefore increases its entropy by the amount

\delta S_{Earth} = \frac{-Q}{T_E}

The total entropy change is:

\delta S_{Earth} + \delta S_{sun} = \frac{Q}{T_E} -\frac{Q}{T_S} \\\\                                                      = Q(\frac{1}{T_E} -\frac{1}{T_S} )\\\\= 6000(\frac{1}{293} -\frac{1}{5300} )\\\\=6000(0.0032243)\\\\= 19.346 \ J/K

Therefore, the entropy change of the Universe that occurs is 19.346 J/K

Precipitation tends to be _______ on the _______ side of a mountain because water vapor _______ as it rises there.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Higher, Windward side, Condenses

Explanation:

The Windward side refers to that side of a mountain that faces the direction from which the wind is blowing. In this direction, the moisture containing hot air blowing from a distant place moves upward and strikes the mountain at a greater height, where the air mass is thin and the temperature is relatively cold. As the temperature and pressure decrease with altitude, the hot uprising air cools and gradually condenses. This results in the occurrence of high precipitation over this region i.e. the windward side of the mountain.

Therefore, the precipitation is always higher on the windward side of a mountain as the hot air undergoes condensation at greater height as it rises upward.

What happens overtime to rocks that are stressed
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Stress is the force applied to an object. In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. Four types of stresses act on materials.

A deeply buried rock is pushed down by the weight of all the material above it. Since the rock cannot move, it cannot deform. This is called confining stress.

Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break) (Figure below). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.
