Mr. jones normally has a basal metabolic rate of 1500 kcal. he develops a fever of 100.6° f. his rate would now be approximately kcal.

A fever that increases body temperature by 1 degree F will raise a person's base metabolic rate by somewhere in the realm of 7%. For a two-degree rise, as in this case, the rise will be approximately 14%. With a base metabolism of 1500kcal and adding 14% to that rate, the figure becomes (1500 * 1.14), or 1710 kcal.

The infrared (ir) and the ultraviolet(uv) represent the two extremities of the visible spectrum (400-700nm). while ir represents electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light, uv represents wavelengths shorter than visible light
