b. You warm 1.15 kg of water at a constant 1L volume from 20∘C to 30∘C in a kettle. For the same amount of heat, how many kilograms of 20∘C air would you be able to warm to 30∘C? Make the simplifying assumption that air is 100% N2. What volume would this air occupy at 20∘C and a pressure of 1 atm ?
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.
