Construct Your Own Problem Consider humans generating electricity by pedaling a device similar to a stationary bicycle. Construct a problem in which you determine the number of people it would take to replace a large electrical generation facility. Among the things to consider are the power output that is reasonable using the legs, rest time, and the need for electricity 24 hours per day. Discuss the practical implications of your results.

There is a 5K event coming up in your town. While talking to your grandmother, who uses an electric scooter for mobility, she says that she would like to accompany you on her scooter while you walk the 5.00-km distance. The manual that came with her scooter claims that the fully charged battery is capable of providing 120 Wh of energy before being depleted. In preparation for the race, you go for a test drive: beginning with a fully charged battery, your grandmother rides beside you as you walk 5.00 km on flat ground. At the end of the walk, the battery usage indicator shows that 40.0% of the original energy in the battery remains. You also know that the combined weight of the scooter and your grandmother is 890 N. A few days later, filled with confidence that the battery has sufficient energy, you and your grandmother drive to the 5K event. Unbeknownst to you, the 5K route is not on flat ground, but is all uphill, ending at a point higher than the starting line. A race official tells you that the total amount of vertical displacement on the route is 150 m. Should your grandmother accompany you on the walk, or will she be stranded when her battery runs out of energy? Assume that the only difference between your test drive and the actual event is the vertical displacement.
Using values from Table 7.1, how many DNA molecules could be broken by the energy carried by a single electron in the beam of an old-fashioned TV tube? (These electrons were not dangerous in themselves, but they did create dangerous x rays. Later model tube TVs had shielding that absorbed x rays before they escaped and exposed viewers.)
