It is 5.0 km from your home to the physics lab. As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10 km/h (which uses up energy at the rate of 700 W), or you could walk it leisurely at 3.0 km/h (which uses energy at 290 W). Which choice would burn up more energy, and how much energy (in joules) would it burn? Why does the more intense exercise burn up less energy than the less intense exercise?

Walking burns up more energy,1740000J

Explanation:

Given that the displacement is 5.0km, and running at 10km/h and uses, walking at 3km/hr and uses 290watts:

Energy consumption for running is calculated as:

Energy consumption for walking is calculated as:

Walking is a slower process hence the need for more energy over longer periods  raltive to running the same distance.

Hence walking burns more energy; 1,740,000J. It burns more because you walk for a greater period of time.

explanation:

current and voltage can both be different in different parts of a circuit so it matters where you place the ammeter and voltmete
