please show step by step for the answer and include the equation you are using

Suppose that Chris Rogers just won the Tour de France's Alpe d'Huez time trial stage, a steep climb. This winning effont involved work against the force of gravity of nearly 10 J. Since human muscle is about 20% officient, about 4 x 10 J of energy composed entirely of liquid water, how much did this effort raise h was converted to heat in his body. Assumming his mass is 75 kg, and he is is body temperature if he did not transfer any to his sumoundings? The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4184 J/ (kg C). 8 points

Explanation / Answer

they 20 % efficient.

so energy transferred Q = 0.20 x 4 x 10^6 J

=0.8 x 10^6 J

Q = m C deltaT

0.8 x 10^6 = 75 x 4184 x deltaT  

deltaT = 2.55 deg C
