The basal metabolic rate is the rate at which energy is produced in the body when a person is at rest. A 75 kg (165 lb) person of height 1.75 m (5.7 ft) would have a body surface area of approximately 1.90 m2. A. What is the net amount of heat this person could radiate per second into a room at 19.0 ∘C (about 66.2 ∘F) if his skin's surface temperature is 30.0 ∘C? B. Normally, 80 %% of the energy produced by metabolism goes into heat, while the rest goes into things like pumping blood and repairing cells. Also normally, a person at rest can get rid of this excess heat just through radiation. Use your answer to part A to find this person's basal metabolic rate(BMR).

Ablock of mass m slides on a horizontal frictionless table with an initial speed v0 . it then compresses a spring of force constant k and is brought to rest. the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. how much is the spring compressed x from its natural length? 1) x = v0*sqrt(k/(mg)) 2) x=v0*sqrt(m/k) 3) x=v0*((mk)/g) 4) x=v0*sqrt(k/m) 5) x=v0*(m/kg) 6) x=v0*sqrt((mg)/k) 7) x=(v0)^2/(2g) 8) x=v0*(k/(mg)) 9) x=(v0)^2/(2m) 10) x=v0*((mg)/k)
