Discuss energy, heat, and energy conversion!  Address each of the questions below. In your document include the question number and question statement immediately before your response. Each question response should be a paragraph (50 word minimum/response) to fully address the topics.

What is the difference between energy and power? What is a unit of power? How does speed relate to power?

Let’s say you’re consuming 2000 calories per day, which is maintaining your current weight. However, you want to lose some weight. (It takes 3500 calories to = 1 pound of fat.) You decide to eat 1 less large fry or 1 less dessert each day, saving 500 calories/day.

a. At this level, how long would it take to lose 10 pounds?

b. Now, let’s look at the same situation but you add a 20 minute walk each day (which burns 90 calories/day). How long would it take to lose 10 pounds?
