The hike to the peak of Mount Hallasan on Jeju Island requires a climb of 1950 m of vertical elevation. Suppose a person with a mass of 68.0 kg is 26.0 % efficent at converting food energy to useable energy. How many food calories would the person to eat in order to fuel his/her climb to the top of Mount Hallasan? Ignore any energy lost due to sideways motion (consider only energy lost due to the elevation change)

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to the top of the slope, a 2.50 kg tube, is pulled at a constant speed by a tow rope that maintains a constant tension of 12.0 N along the direction of the slope. How much thermal energy is created in the slope and the tube during the ascent of a 6.10-m-high, 51.8-m-long slope, in Joule? Use g = 10.0 m/s2.
