Albatrossflew across the English Channelon June12, 1979, in 2h 49 min. (a) Howmuch
energy did the pilotexpend during the flight?(b) How manySnickers candy bars (280 Cal
per bar) would the pilothave to consume to beâfueled upâ for the flight?[Note: The
nutritional calorie, 1Cal,is equivalent to 1000calories (1000 cal) as defined in physics.In
addition, the conversionfactor between calories andjoules is as follows:
1Cal = 1000 cal= 1 kcal = 4186J. ]
