    B) 2.7W

    Explanation:

    Converting Cal to Joule

    1 cal = 4.186J

    14 kcal = 14 x 1000 x 4.186

    = 58604 J

    Converting hour to seconds

    6 hours = 6 x 60 x 60 seconds

    = 21600 seconds

    Power is the time rate of doing work.

    Power = Work/Time

    P = (58604) / (21600)

    P = 2.7W

    D) 0.0027

    Explanation:

    Power is the rate of work that is power = work/time

    we are given the following:

    Work = 14kcal this is equal to 58.576 J

    time = 6hours this is equal to 21600 seconds

    therefore:

    Power = 58.576/21600 = 0.0027W
