Module 3 Quiz

metabolic equations

QuestionAnswer
Work is defined as: force times distance
The SI unit for work is the joule (J)
Calculate the power if 600 joules of work are completed in 60 seconds: 10 watts
Calculating the work performed on a cycle ergometer requires that you know all of the following except - subject's body weight - resistance against flywheel - pedaling speed - exercise time ??
DIRECT calorimetry is a method of determining energy expenditure and involves the measurement of: heat production
The most common technique used to measure oxygen consumption in exercise physiology laboratories is: open-circuit spirometry
A MET is defined as a metabolic equivalent and is equal to: resting VO2
Net efficiency is defined as: work performed/energy expended above rest times 100
Exercise efficiency is greater in subjects who: have a higher percentage of slow muscle fibers
A subject performing a 10-MET activity would have an oxygen consumption of approximately: 35 mL/kg/min
The SI units used to describe power are: watts
Net efficiency ____ as work rate increases decreases
T/F: Work equals power divided by time. false
T/F: The SI unit used for both work and energy is the joule. true
A runner who exhibits poor running economy would require: a higher VO2 at any given running speed compared to an economical runner
Using the percentage of heart rate reserve method to prescribe exercise intensity, which of the following is the correct answer given the available test data below? HRrest: 70 bpm HRmax: 180 bpm Desired exercise intensity: 50% 125 bpm
One MET is equivalent to: 3.5 mL/kg/min
Two individuals, one weighing 110 lb (50 kg) and the other weighing 176 lb (80 kg), have maximal oxygen consumptions of 52 mL/kg/min. they both exercise at 2.5 mph (67 m/min) and 12% grade on the treadmill. Which of the following variables will be approxi METs
The health-related gains that occur with physical activity are realized when the volume of physical activity is between ____ and ____ MET-min/wk. 500; 1000
T/F: An unfit individual and a fit individual who both exercise at a level of 5.0 METs will most likely be working at equal intensities relative to their maximal MET capacity. true
A 50-yr-old man who weights 193 lb (87.5 kg) and has a resting heart rate (HR) of 70 bpm wants you to help him calculate his target heart rate (THR) zone for 60% to 80% VO2reserve. Use the Karvonen (HRR) method to do so. 130 to 150 bpm
A 30-yr-old woman with a maximal HR of 180 bpm and a resting HR of 60 bpm needs help calculating a THR range using the %HRmax method. What is her THR zone at 55% to 75% of her HRmax? 125 to 163 bpm
You are calculating an exercise intensity for a client with a VO2max of 53.5 mL/kg/min. If he wanted to work at 65% of his VO2max, what level of intensity, in mL/kg/min, would you suggest for him? 35
A 55 kg woman walks at 80 m/min on a 7.5% grade. What is the energy requirement in mL/kg/min? 22.3
A 65 kg woman runs at 130 m/min on a 2% grade. What is the approximate energy requirement in mL/kg/min? 36
