Answer:

The correct answer would be B. 18 to 26%.

The muscle efficiency is calculated by dividing mechanical work output by total metabolic cost.

It is estimated that human muscles have an efficiency of about 18% to 26%.

The efficiency is low because most of the energy is lost when food energy is converted into ATP (adenosine triphophate).

In addition, there is second energy loss when energy in the form of ATP is converted into the mechanical energy such as rowing, cycling et cetera.

Can i get a little bit idea about Quantum physics​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it's the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they interact. Quantum physics underlies how atoms work, and so why chemistry and biology work as they do.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The acceleration at the astronaut's head decreases.

Explanation:

Since the centripetal acceleration equals acceleration due to gravity,

a = g = GM/R². since a changes infinitesimally from his foot to his head, we differentiate a with respect to r to get da/dr = -2GM/R³.

So, da, the change in acceleration = -2GMdR/R³ = -2gdR/R = -2 × 9.8/6.4 × 10⁶ m =  -3.0625 × 10⁻⁶dR m/s².

Since dR = height of astronaut = 1.80 m, da = -3.0625 × 10⁻⁶ × 1.8 = -5.5125 × 10⁻⁶ m/s².

So the acceleration at the astronaut's head is g + da = 9.8 - 0.0000055125 = 9.7999944875 m/s².

So the acceleration at the astronaut's head decreases.
