On a brisk walk, a person burns about 331 Cal/h. If the brisk walk were done at 3.0 mi/h, how far would a person have to walk to burn off 1 lb of body fat? (A pound of body fat stores an amount of chemical energy equivalent to 3,500 Cal.)
mi?

32mi

Explanation:

If 1lb contains 3,500 Cal

It means the number of hours required to burn 3500cal would be;

3500/331 = 10.57hours

But a brisk walk is 3.0 mi/h,

It means a distance of 3.0 × 10.57 mi would be covered = 31.71 miles

32miles{ approximated to the nearest whole}

Note Distance = speed × time

answer: the rock sample is a sedimentary rock.

explanation:

it is given that:

mass of rock sample, m = 2.7 g

volume of rock sample,

so, density of rock sample will be

since, the density of rock sample is . hence, the rock sample is a sedimentary rock, whose densities varies between .
