Snickers bar power the normally functioning brain

Reference no: EM13672607

The human brain consumes about 22 W of power under normal conditions, though more power may be needed during exams.(a) How long can one Snickers bar (280 Cal per bar) power the normally functioning brain? (b) At what rate should you lift a 3.6-kg container of milk (one gallon) if the power output of your arm is to be 22 W? (c) How long does it take to lift the milk container during a distance of 1.0 m at this rate?
