Answer:
The hiker has to climb 941.26 to ''work off'' the calories.
Explanation:
Let's first find out how much energy the hiker gets from 150 food calories.
This is:
Energy = 150 * 4186
Energy = 627.9 kJ
To burn all of this off, we set it equal to the gravitational potential energy, and then solve for the height.
This is:
Gravitational Potential Energy (G.P.E) = 629700
G.P.E = mass * gravity * height
Thus,
mass * gravity * height = 629700
68 * 9.81 * height = 629700
height = 941.26 meters
The relationship if time according to the speed of light can be represented using Lorentz' time-dilation equation:
T = To / sqrt( 1 - (v^2/c^2) )
Where:
T = new time = ?
To = original time = 1 minute
v = velocity = 0.6c
c = speed of light
Substituting the given values:
T = 1 / sqrt( 1 - (0.6c^2/c^2) <span>)</span>
T = 1 / sqrt( 1 - (0.6^2) <span>)
</span>T = 1.25
Therefore, the alarm clock would ring for 1.25 minutes.
Answer: It is generally believed that tornadic wind speeds can be as high as 300 mph in the most violent tornadoes.
