A 92.6 kg weight-watcher wishes to climb a mountain to work off the equivalent of a large piece of chocolate cake rated at 735 (

food) Calories. How high must the person climb? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 and 1 food Calorie is 103 calories. Answer in units of km.

Answer:

349 m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of climber, m = 92.6 kg

Amount of food calories = 735

1 food calorie = 103 calories

735 food calories = 75705 calories

1 joule is equal to 0.239 calories. Therefore, 75705 calories will be 316749.72 joules.

Hence, this is the amount of work the climber must do work off the food he ate.

Work done is given as:

W = Force * distance

W = m * g * h

h = W/(m * g)

h = 316749.72/(92.6 * 9.8)

h = 349 m

How would you find the total energy stored in the
likoan [24]

Answer:

The energy of the capacitors connected in parallel is 0.27 J

Given:

C = 2.0\micro F = 2.0\times 10^{- 6} F

C' = 4.0\micro F = 4.0\times 10^{- 6} F

Potential difference, V = 300 V

Solution:

Now, we know that the equivalent capacitance of the two parallel connected capacitors is given by:

C_{eq} = C + C' = 2.0 + 4.0 = 6.0\micro F = 6.0\times 10^{- 6} F

The energy of the capacitor, E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2}C_{eq}V^{2}

E = \frac{1}{2}\times 6.0\times 10^{- 6}\times 300^{2} = 0.27 J

Identify the arrows that show the movement of carbon from the biosphere to the atmosphere in the carbon cycle.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

All of the arrows pointing up that have a red box NOT the arrow pointing down with a red box. (if the blue squigglies on the water are arrows then they count too, the picture is not too clear)

What is the average speed of a kangaroo that hops 60 m in 5 s ?
jok3333 [9.3K]
The formula for average speed is
v_{avg}= \frac{total distance}{total time}
So we can just substitute our data.
v_{avg}= \frac{60}{5}=12 \frac{m}{s} - its the result

The pupil of a cat's eye narrows to a slit width of 0.5 mm in daylight. What is the angular resolution of the cat's eye in dayli
Elenna [48]

Answer:

C. 10⁻³ rads

Explanation:

Here, we shall use Rayleigh's Criterion to find out the angular resolution of Cat's eye during day light. Rayleigh's Criterion is written as follows:

θ = λ/a

where,

θ = angular resolution of Cat's eye = ?

λ = wavelength = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

a = slit width of eye = 0.5 mm = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

θ = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m/5 x 10⁻⁴ m)

Therefore,

θ = 0.001

θ = Sin⁻¹(0.001)

θ = 0.001 rad = 1 x 10⁻³ rad

Hence, the correct answer is:

<u>C. 10⁻³ rads</u>
