Answer:
1.61 × 10⁶ kJ
Explanation:
The human burns energy so as to be healthy.
The amount of energy burnt per day by an adult human is 2 × 20³ kcal per day. Since there is 24 hours in a day, the amount of energy burnt per hour is 2 × 20³ × 24 = 48 × 20³ kcal per hour.
The conversion rate of kcal to kJ is 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ. Therefore converting the kcal per hour to kJ per hour gives:
48 × 20³ × 4.184 = 200.882 × 20³ kJ = 1.61 × 10⁶ kJ
