A less than youthful 82.6 kg physics professor decides to run the 26.2 mile (42.195 km) Los Angeles Marathon. During his months

of training, he realizes that one important component in running a successful marathon is carbo-loading, the consumption of a sufficient quantity of carbohydrates prior to the race that the body can store as glycogen to burn during the race. The typical energy requirement for runners is 1 kcal/km per kilogram of body weight, and each mole of oxygen intake allows for the release of 120 kcal of energy by oxidizing (burning) glycogen.
(a) If the professor finishes the marathon in 4:45:00 h, what is the professor's oxygen intake rate, in liters per minute, during the race if he metabolizes all of the carbo-loaded glycogen during the race and the ambient temperature is 21.5°C? 2.28 Read the problem statement again carefully. Is the air at standard temperature and pressure during the marathon? How would this affect the volume of 1 mol of oxygen? L/min
(b) The human body has an efficiency of 25.0%. Only 25.0% of the energy released from oxidizing glycogen is used as macroscopic mechanical energy, and the remaining 75.0% is used for body processes such as pumping blood and respiration, and then leaves the body through the skin via radiation, evaporative cooling, and other processes. What is the average mechanical power (in W) generated by the professor during the run? 197.561 What is the total energy required by the professor during the run? How efficient is the human body, and how long did the race last? W
(c) What is the change in entropy (in J/K) of the professor's body if his core temperature has risen to 38.3°C during the run and his skin temperature is at 36.0°C during the marathon? J/K
(d) What is the change of the entropy (in J/K) of the air surrounding the professor during the race if the ambient temperature remains constant at 21.5°C? J/K

A stone is dropped from a bridge 45 meters above the surface river. It takes the stone 4.6 seconds to reach the water surface. F
Hunter-Best [27]
The most interesting thing about this problem is that in order to use all of the given information, you need to ignore the laws of Physics, and never mind what the stone would really do if dropped from a real bridge in the real world.

Average velocity = (displacement) / (time for the displacement)

Displacement =
        Straight path from the start point to the finish point  =  45 meters down .
Time = 4.6 seconds

Average velocity  =  45/4.6 = <em>9.783 meters/second down</em>

==================================

In the real world, a dropped stone would only take  3.03  seconds
to fall 45 meters.

Alternatively, a stone that fell for  4.6 seconds from rest would fall
103.7 meters, with an average velocity of  22.5 meters/second down.

But we accepted the given information, and did the best we could do
with it.

9. Complete the following statement:
mario62 [17]

Answer:

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Explanation:

Heat can be described as the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

Which is expressed mathematically as;

H = MCΔT

Where;

H is the quantity of heat in a body, measured in Joules

M is the mass of the body, measured in kg

C is the specific heat capacity of the body, J/kg.K

ΔT is change in temperature or temperature difference.

So, heat energy in any system flows from a hotter region to a colder region due to temperature difference.

E) the flow of energy due to a temperature difference.

sveta [45]

Answer:

velocity of the object

Explanation:

For an object moving at a constant acceleration, we would expect to see a position graph with a curved shape and a velocity graph with a straight shape.
