Question

5) An average adult can generate about 100 W of electrical power comfortably for an hour by pedaling a bicycle with an electrical generator. At your maximum power use, how

many equivalent humans do you have pedaling for you? How much do you pay each of them for pedaling for you for an hour? By this measure, is electricity a good deal? (For context,do your 'pedaling workers' make a lot of noise, demand better working conditions, raid your refrigerator, mess up your house, get in your way, go on strike, leave dirty dishes, or bug you for raises?).
