A weight lifter lifts a weight of 160Kg through of 2.4 m . Assuming all the energy required for this task is obtained by the combustion of glucose , calculate the change in the current produced by a sample of blood of the weight lifter . Same volume of blood (5mL) is tested both before and after lifting the weight and the total volume of blood in his body is 5L. (1 g of glucose releases 15.58 KJ of energy )

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations: ### Step 1: Calculate the energy required to lift the weight The energy required (E) to lift a weight can be calculated using the formula: \[ E = m \cdot g \cdot h \] where: - \( m = 160 \, \text{kg} \) (mass of the weight) - \( g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (acceleration due to gravity) - \( h = 2.4 \, \text{m} \) (height lifted) Calculating: \[ E = 160 \, \text{kg} \cdot 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \cdot 2.4 \, \text{m} \] \[ E = 160 \cdot 9.81 \cdot 2.4 \] \[ E = 3769.44 \, \text{J} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the amount of glucose burned Given that 1 gram of glucose releases 15.58 kJ of energy, we first convert this to joules: \[ 1 \, \text{g of glucose} = 15.58 \, \text{kJ} = 15580 \, \text{J} \] Now, we can find the amount of glucose (in grams) burned using the formula: \[ \text{mass of glucose} = \frac{\text{Energy required}}{\text{Energy per gram of glucose}} \] \[ \text{mass of glucose} = \frac{3769.44 \, \text{J}}{15580 \, \text{J/g}} \] \[ \text{mass of glucose} \approx 0.241 \, \text{g} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of glucose burned The molar mass of glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is approximately 180 g/mol. Thus, the number of moles of glucose burned can be calculated as: \[ \text{moles of glucose} = \frac{\text{mass of glucose}}{\text{molar mass of glucose}} \] \[ \text{moles of glucose} = \frac{0.241 \, \text{g}}{180 \, \text{g/mol}} \] \[ \text{moles of glucose} \approx 0.00134 \, \text{mol} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the change in current produced by the blood sample The total volume of blood in the weight lifter's body is 5 L, and we are testing 5 mL of blood. The change in current can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Change in current} = \frac{\text{moles of glucose} \times \text{current per mole}}{\text{total volume of blood}} \] Assuming that the current produced is directly proportional to the moles of glucose burned and that the current per mole is given as 2.5 mA (milliamperes), we can calculate: \[ \text{Change in current} = \frac{0.00134 \, \text{mol} \times 2.5 \, \text{mA}}{5 \, \text{L}} \times 1000 \, \text{mL/L} \] \[ \text{Change in current} = \frac{0.00335 \, \text{mA}}{5} \times 1000 \] \[ \text{Change in current} = 0.67 \, \text{mA} \] ### Final Answer: The change in the current produced by a sample of blood of the weight lifter is approximately **0.67 mA**. ---
