(reference problem 85)

Counting calories. The chemical potential energy in foods is measured in units called Calories (notice the capital C). This “food Calorie” is equal to 1000 calories. For example, a typical apple contains approximately 75 Calories, which is actually 75 kilocalories. If all the energy in an apple were converted to gravitational potential energy, how high would you be lifted?
