Problem 64P When you ride a bicycle at constant speed, nearly all the energy you expend goes into the work you do against the drag force of the air. Model a cyclist as having cross-section area 0.45 m2and, because the human body is not aerodynamically shaped, a drag coefficient of 0.90. a. What is the cyclist’s power output while riding at a steady 7.3 m/s (16 mph)? ________________ b. Metabolic power is the rate at which your body “burns” fuel to power your activities. For many activities, your body is roughly 25% efficient at converting the chemical energy of food into mechanical energy. What is the cyclist’s metabolic power while cycling at 7.3 m/s? ________________ c. The food calorie is equivalent to 4190 J. How many calories does the cyclist burn if he rides over level ground at 7.3 m/s for 1 h?

Problem 63P The human heart pumps the average adult’s 6.0 L (6000 cm3) of blood through the body every minute. The heart must do work to overcome frictional forces that resist blood flow. The average adult blood pressure is 1.3 × 104 N/m2. a. How much work does the heart do to move the 6.0 L of blood completely through the body? ________________ b. What power output must the heart have to do this task once a minute? Hint: When the heart contracts, it applies force to the blood. Pressure is force/area. Model the circulatory system as a single closed tube, with cross-section area A and volume V =6.0 L, filled with blood to which the heart applies a force.

Problem 66P The force required to tow a water skier at speed v is proportional to the speed. That is, Ftow = Av, where A is a proportionality constant. If a speed of 2.5 mph requires 2 hp, how much power is required to tow a water skier at 7.5 mph?

Problem 67P A Porsche 944 Turbo has a rated engine power of 217 hp. 30% of the power is lost in the drive train, and 70% reaches the wheels. The total mass of the car and driver is 1480 kg, and two-thirds of the weight is over the drive wheels. a. What is the maximum acceleration of the Porsche on a concrete surface where µs = 1.00? Hint: What force pushes the car forward? ________________ b. If the Porsche accelerates at amax, what is its speed when it reaches maximum power output? ________________ c. How long does it take the Porsche to reach the maximum power output?

Problem 65P In a hydroelectric dam, water falls 25 m and then spins a turbine to generate electricity. a. What is ?U of 1.0 kg of water? ________________ b. Suppose the dam is 80% efficient at converting the water’s potential energy to electrical energy. How many kilograms of water must pass through the turbines each second to generate 50 MW of electricity? This is a typical value for a small hydroelectric dam.
