It is not unusual for a 1000-kg car to get 30 mi/gal when traveling at 60 mi/h on a level road.
A. If this car makes a 200-km trip, how many joules of energy does it consume?Note that 1.0 gal of gasoline yields 1.3 ×109 J (although this can vary)?
B. What is the average rate of energy consumption during the trip?
A PHYS 1510 student was working on a robotics project. The joints on the machine they were building were powered
by pistons.
Based on how hot the machine was getting, the student was able to figure out that 2.34 J of thermal energy was
produced by every piston every time the piston was fully extended to 0.4064 m.
What was the force of friction that the piston experienced during every extension?
Assume friction is the only source of thermal energy. Include units in Sl.
Suppose you require 2500 food Calories per day.
a. What is your average power, in watts?
b. How much energy, in joules, do you require from food in a year? Counting all forms of energy (such as gasoline, electricity, and energy for heating), the average person consumes about 350
billion joules of energy each year. Compare this value to the energy needed from food alone.
a. What is your average power, in watts?
Approximately 121 watts
(Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)
b. The energy required from food is approximately billion joules per year.
(Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Dr. Fahrrad rides 8.6 kilometers to his job, has a mass of 68.4 kilograms and has an average acceleration of 2.4 kilometers per second squared. The molecule ATP is able to do work, measured in kilojoules per mole of ATP broken into ADP. The SI unit for work is a joule. Using the information given we can calculate work and then convert to moles of ATP. The first step is to take stock of what we are given in the word problem and what we are trying to find. We have mass, distance, and average acceleration. We are trying to find how many ATP are required to power the bike ride to work. The equation for work, is force times distance and will tell us how many joules Dr. Farrhad is using on his bike ride. It also incorporates one of our given variables, distance. However, the distance was reported in kilometers and the SI unit of…arrow_forwardA food calorie is a unit of energy such that 1 food calorie = 4184 J.

At this rate, how many calories are burned per second (or alternatively, how many seconds does it take to burn 1 calorie)?arrow_forward
