Question

The work done by the heart is 1 Joule per beat. Calculate the power of the heart if it beats 72 times in one

Numerical

Solution

Total work done by the heart in one minute (i.e. 60 s.) is 72 beats or 72 joules.

∴ Power of heart =`("W(in Joules)")/("Time(in s)")=72/60"watts"` = 1.2 watts.
