An athlete training for an event does 6.53 104 J of work during a workout and gives off 5.97 105 J of heat. Consider the athlete to be like a heat engine. (a) Determine the magnitude of the change in internal energy of the athlete. J (b) What is the efficiency of the athlete

(a) The magnitude of the change in internal energy is 6.623 x 10⁵ J

(b) the efficiency of the athlete is 10.94 %

Explanation:

Given;

work done by the athlete (system), W = 6.53 x 10⁴ J

the heat given off by the athlete (system), Q = 5.97 x 10⁵ J

The simple diagram below will be used to illustrate the direction of the energy flow assuming a heat engine.

                            Q← ⊕ →W

The work, W, points away from the system since the system does the work

The heat, Q, points away from the system since heat is given off

Apply first law of thermodynamic;

ΔU = Q + W

where;

q is the heat flowing into or out of the system

(+q     if the heat is flowing into the system

(-q      if the heat is leaving the system

w is the work done by or on the system

(+w     if the work is done on the system by the surrounding

(-w     if the work is done by the system to the surrounding

Thus, from the above explanation, the change in internal energy of the system is calculated as;

ΔU = -Q - W

ΔU = - 5.97 x 10⁵ J  -  6.53 x 10⁴ J

ΔU = -6.623 x 10⁵ J

The magnitude of the change in internal energy = 6.623 x 10⁵ J

(b) the efficiency of the athlete;

3. when u click on your profile pic, there appears four options on the top.

4. click on the 1st option and scroll down and go at the bottom.

5. click on edit profile.

6. there appears a option 'prefernces' and at that option at the right side , 'edit' is written.

7. click on the edit option.

8. there is a option " i want to delete my account" and click on that.

hope this u

and ur welcm
