A person trying to lose weight by burning fat filts a mass of `10 kg` upto a being of `1m 1000` time . Assume that the potential energy lost each time be lower the mass is dissipated . How much far will be use up considering the work done only when the weight is lifted up ? Far supplies `3.8 xx 10^(7) J` of energy per kg wich is canverted to mechanical energy with `x 20 %` efficiency rate Take ` = 9.8 ms^(-2)`

A

`2.45xx10^(-3)kg`

B

`6.45xx10^(-3)kg`

C

`9.89xx10^(-3)kg`

D

`12.89xx10^(-3)kg`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Here, `m=10kg, h=1m, n=1000`
Work done in lifting mass `=nxxmgh`
`=1000xx10xx9.8xx1` ….(i)
If `M` is mass of fat burnt, then energy gained
`=Mxx3.8xx10^(7)xx(20)/(100)` ...(ii)
If there is no loss of energy, then from (i) and (ii)
`Mxx3.8xx10^(7)xx(20)/(100)=1000xx10xx9.8`
`M=(9.8xx10^(4)xx5)/(3.8xx10^(7))=12.89xx10^(-3)kg`

A person trying to lose weight by burning fat lifts a mass of 10 kg upto a height of 1 m 1000 times. Assume that the potential energy lost each time he lowers the mass is dissipated. How much fat will he use up considering the work done only when the weight is lifted up?
