One gallon of gasoline represents a significant amount of energy.
a) How many days would one average person need to work to produce the same useful work contained in one gallon of gasoline? (Be sure to state your assumptions)
b) Josephine Bruin, who weighs 80 kg, has a motorcycle that weighs 100 kg that is equipped with a gasoline tank that holds 1 gallon of gas. Calculate how many times Josephine could use her motorcycle to climb from sea level to the top of Mt. Everest which is of 8,848 m above sea level on one tank of gas assuming that Josephine’s motorcycle is 100% efficient?
c) Josephine tries to use her motorcycle to actually climb from sea level to the top of Mt. Everest and she finds that she runs out of gas at an altitude of 6,000 m above sea level. Estimate the overall climbing efficiency of Josephine’s motorcycle.
d) Once Josephine runs out of gas at an altitude of 6,000 m above sea level, she decides to turn around and coast back down the mountain to sea level, using her brakes to control her speed. Calculate the breaking power (in Watts) that Josephine would need to apply to maintain a constant speed of 5 m/sec measured along the road, assuming that the road down the mountain is 10 km long and has a constant slope.

Apoll is being conducted at a mall nothingto obtain a sample of the population of an entire country. what is the frame for this type of​ sampling? who would be excluded from the survey and how might this affect the results of the​ survey? what is the frame for this type of​ sampling? a. the frame is people who need new clothes. b. the frame is people who shop at the mall. c. the frame is people who like to shop. d. the frame is the entire population of the country. who would be excluded from the survey and how might this affect the results of the​ survey? a. any person that does not need new clothes is excluded. this could result in sampling bias due to undercoverage. b. any person who does not shop at the mall is excluded. this could result in sampling bias due to undercoverage. c. any person who does not shop at the mall is excluded. this could result in nonresponse bias due to people not participating in the poll. d. there is nobody that is being excluded from the survey.
