Work, Power, Energy & Human Powered Aircraft

Human-powered aircraft require a pilot to pedal, as in a bicycle, and produce a
sustained power output of about 0.30 hp.

The Gossamer Albatross flew across the English Channel on June 12, 1979, in 2h 49 min.

(a) How much energy did the pilot expend during the flight?

(b) How many Snickers candy bars (280 Cal per bar) would the pilot have to consume to be “fueled up” for the flight?

[Note: The nutritional calorie, 1Cal, is equivalent to 1000 calories (1000 cal) as defined in physics. In addition, the conversion factor between calories and joules is as follows: 1Cal = 1000 cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J. ]
