A pound of body fat stores an amount of chemical energy equivalent to 3,500 Cal. When sleeping, the average adult burns expends

about 0.42 Cal/h for every pound of body weight.
How long would the person have to sleep continuously to lose 1 lb of body fat? (Assume the person weighs 140 lb.)​

Answer:

1166667hrs

Explanation:

1lb contains 3,500 Cal

There 140lb contains 3,500 × 140 = 490000cal

But he burns 0.42cal in 1 hour.

Therefore 490000cal will be burnt in 490000/0.42 = 1166667hrs to the nearest whole.

(a) Frequency of sound wave is inversely proportional to string length.

(b) Pitch of a sound depends on the frequency while loudness depends on the amplitude of sound.

<h3>Relationship between string length and frequency</h3>

The relationship between string length and frequency is given as;

λ = 2L

where;

  • λ is wavelength
  • L is length of the string

v = fλ

f = v/λ

f = v/2L

Thus, frequency of sound wave is inversely proportional to string length.

<h3>Relationship between pitch and loudness of sound</h3>

The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency while loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of sound waves.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

302129m

Explanation:

Using s= ut + 1/2at²

But u= 0

So

S= 1/2(3.1)(441.5)²

=302129m

A pulley system operates with 40% efficiency. if the work put in is 200 joules, how much useful work is produced?
QveST [7]

<span>1.    </span><span>Efficiency is the measure of how efficient a process is. It is used to assess the ability of a process in avoiding waste energy, materials, money and time in doing a desirable output. It is calculated as;

Efficiency = useful energy ouput / total energy input</span>

<span>.40 = useful work / 200</span>

<span>useful work = 80 joules</span>

What impulse occurs when an average force of 20-N is applied by a dad to a new bike riding child for 3.5 s. b) What change in mo
garri49 [273]

Answer:

A. 70 Ns

B. 70 Kgm/s

C. 2.19 m/s

Explanation:

A. Determination of the impulse.

Force (F) = 20 N

Time (t) = 3.5 s

Impulse (I) =?

Impulse (I) = force (F) × time (t)

I = Ft

I = 20 × 3.5

I = 70 Ns

Thus, the Impulse is 70 Ns.

B. Determination of the change in momentum

Force (F) = 20 N

Time (t) = 3.5 s

Change in momentum =?

Change in momentum = m(v – u) = Ft

Change in momentum = Ft

Change in momentum = 20 × 3.5

Change in momentum = 70 Kgm/s

C. Determination of the final velocity.

Change in momentum = 70 Kgm/s

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Combined mass (m) = 32 kg

Final velocity (v) =?

Change in momentum = m(v – u)

70 = 32(v – 0)

70 = 32(v)

70 = 32v

Divide both side by 32

v = 70 / 32

v = 2.19 m/s

Thus, the final velocity is 2.19 m/s
