Q30 of 48 Page 45

The average work done by a human heart while it beats once is 0.5 J. Calculate the power used by heart if it beats 72 times in a minute.

Work done by heart in one beat = 0.5 J


∵ it beats 72 times in a minute


∴ Work done in minute =


∴ Power used by heart = work done per unit time =
