The height to which the weight-watcher must climb to work off the equivalent 991 (food) Calories is 0.59 Km
<h3>How to determine the energy. </h3>
1 food calorie = 103 calories
Therefore,
991 food calories = 991 × 103
991 food calories = 102073 calories
Multiply by 4.2 to express in joule (J)
991 food calories = 102073 × 4.2
991 food calories = 428706.6 J
<h3>How to determine the height </h3>
- Energy (E) = 428706.6 J
- Mass (m) = 73.9 kg
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
E = mgh
Divide both side by mg
h = E / mg
h = 428706.6 / (73.9 × 9.8)
h = 591.95 m
Divide by 1000 to express in km
h = 591.95 / 1000
h = 0.59 Km

Answer:
K_a = 8,111 J
Explanation:
This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved
initial instant. Just before dropping the particles
p₀ = 0
final moment
p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b
p₀ = p_f
0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b
tells us that
m_a = 8 m_b
0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b
v_b = - 8 v_a (1)
indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved
starting point
Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J
final point. After separating the body
Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²
K₀ = K_f
73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)
we substitute equation 1
73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)
73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)
73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a
K_a = 8,111 J
