Answer:

46041J

Explanation:

Using Energy lost= mgh

Changing to standard its we have

= 195*1000/3600=54.2m/s

So = 85*54.2*10= 46041J

Answer:

45167.15 J/s

Explanation:

mass of the man = 85 kg

The man's speed = 195 km/h = 195 x 1000/3600 = 54.167 m/s

The man's weight = mg

where

m is the mass

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

weight = 85 x 9.81 = 833.85 N

The rate at which energy is removed from the man = speed x weight

==> 54.167 x 833.85 = 45167.15 J/s
