(a) Suppose you start a workout on a Stairmaster, producing power at the same rate as climbing 116 stairs per minute. Assuming your mass is 76.0 kg and your efficiency is 20.0, how long will it take for your body temperature to rise 1.00ºCif all other forms of heat transfer in and out of your body are balanced? (b) Is this consistent with your experience in getting warm while exercising?
(a) Calculate the rate of heat transfer by radiation from a car radiator at 110°C into a 50.0ºC environment, if the radiator has an emissivity of 0.750 and a 1.20-m2 surface area. (b) Is this a significant fraction of the heat transfer by an automobile engine? To answer this, assume a horsepower of 200 hp (1.5 kW) and the efficiency of automobile engines as 25%.
If the air temperature isthe same as the temperature of your skin (about 30°C), your body cannotget rid of heat by transferring it to the air. In that case, it gets ridof the heat by evaporating water (sweat). During bicycling, a typical70 kg person’s body produces energy at a rate of about 500 W due tometabolism, 80% of which is converted to heat. (a) How many kilogramsof water must the person’s body evaporate in an hour to get ridof this heat? The heat of vaporization of water at body temperature is2.42 * 10^6 J/kg. (b) The evaporated water must, of course, be replenished,or the person will dehydrate. How many 750 mL bottles of watermust the bicyclist drink per hour to replenish the lost water? (Recall thatthe mass of a liter of water is 1.0 kg.)
