Power

Internal energy change while biking You set your stationary bike on a high 80-N friction-like resistive force and cycle for 30 min at a speed of 8.0 m/s. Your body is 10% efficient at converting chemical energy in your body into mechanical work. (a) What is your internal chemical energy change? (b) How long must you bike to convert 3.0 x 105 J of chemical potential while staying at this speed? (This amount of energy equals the energy released by the body after eating three slices of bread.)
