you walk up a 100m high mountain, which takes you 5 hours . walking on the flat consumes about 400w. you are hoping to lose some of your 70kg with all this excercise but on the way you eat four small chocolate bars, which according to the wrapper will each supply 1130kj.
A) calculate the energy you expend during the 5 hour walk, assuming that while you are climbing, your body works with an efficieny of only 15%?
B) calculate the energy that must be obtained from your body after the energy from the chocolate has been used?
C) if fat converts to energy at a rate of 38MJ-1 how much mass are you likely to lose?
