During light activity a `70 kg` person may generate `200` kcal/hr. Assuming that `20%` of this goes into useful work and the other `80%` is converted to heat, calculate the temperature rise of the body after `1.00hr` if none of this heat is transferred to the environment. Assume specific heat of the human body is `450 "cal"//kg^(@)C`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
