How many butter, which has a usable energy content of 6.0 Cal/g ( = 6000 cal/g), would be equivalent to the change in gravitational potential energy of a 64 kg man who climbs 7.07 km? Assume that the average g for the climb is 9.80 m/s^2.

    175.96 g

    Explanation:

    Potential energy required for the man to climb 7.07 km = m g h.

    = 64 x 9.8 x 7070

    = 4.434 x 10⁶ J

    = 4.434 X 10⁶ / 4.2 cals

    = 1.0557 x 10⁶ cals

    = 1.0557 x 10⁶ / 6000 g of butter

    = 175.96 g of butter.
