Explanation :
It is given that,
BMR i.e basal metabolic rate is 88 kcal/hr. So, BMR in watts is converted by the following :
We know that, 1 kilocalorie = 4184 joules
So,
J/sec is nothing but watts.
So,
and
So, it can be seen that the body can accommodate a modes amount of activity in hot weather but strenuous activity would increase the metabolic rate above the body's ability to remove heat.
Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces applied to an object is equal to the product between the object's mass and its acceleration:
where in our problem, m is the mass the (child+cart) and a is the acceleration of the system.
We are only concerned about what it happens on the horizontal axis, so there are two forces acting on the cart+child system: the force F of the man pushing it, and the frictional force
acting in the opposite direction. So Newton's second law can be rewritten as
or
since the frictional force is 15 N and we want to achieve an acceleration of
, we can substitute these values to find what is the force the man needs:
where in our problem, m is the mass the (child+cart) and a is the acceleration of the system.
