  1. * References
  2. ** "How much energy does the brain use in different circumstances?"
  3. http://www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-42053.html
  4. 20% daily calories, normal work
  5. 35% daily calories, mental work
  6.  
  7. * Theory
  8. 1. (focused energy + xx minutes) * once per day = idea manifestation
  9. 2. (focused energy + 30*minutes) * 1/day = idea manifestation
  10. 30 minutes/day is baseline
  11. 3. (((35% * 2000 calories) / (24 hours * 60 minutes)) * 30minutes) / day = idea manifestation
  12. I don't understand how to add "focused energy" to 30 minutes. Instead, I'll plug it in to focused energy.
  13. 4. (700 calories / 1440 minutes/day) * 30 minutes / day = idea manifestation
  14. 5. .48611111111111111111 calories/minute/day * 30 minutes
  15.  
  16. But this isn't what I want. I just want focused energy.
  17.  
  18. - 2000 calorie diet
  19. - 35% daily calories used by brain during mental work
  20. - 20% daily calories used by brain during normal work
  21. - Assume only 8 hours of the day is doing mental work
  22. How many calories are actually used?
  23.  
  24. | | Day | Brain |
  25. |--------+-----+-------|
  26. | Diet | | 2000 |
  27. | Normal | 20% | 400. |
  28. | Mental | 35% | 700. |
  29.  
  30. How many calories does normal working brain use every eight hours?
  31. | 400/3 | 133.33333 |
  32.  
  33. Double that for 16 hours.
  34. | (400/3)*2 | 266.66667 |
  35.  
  36. 24 hours mental working brain - 16 hours of normal working brain = Calories used by mental working brain in 8 hours
  37. | 700-((400/3)*2) | 433.33333 |
  38.  
  39. Calories used by mental working brain per hour?
  40. | (700-((400/3)*2))/8 | 54.166667 |
  41.  
  42. Calories used by mental working brain per minute? 0.90277778 = 65/72
  43. | ((700-((400/3)*2))/8)/60 | 0.90277778 |
  44.  
  45. Check, 1440/3=1/3 day .. should equal 433.33333
  46. | (((700-((400/3)*2))/8)/60)*(1440/3) | 433.33333 |
  47.  
  48. Calories per second
  49. | (65/72)/60 | 0.015046296 |
  50. which is equal to 0.0629958320928 Ws (thanks http://www.unitjuggler.com/convert-energy-from-cal-to-Ws.html)
  51.  
  52. Let's start over
  53.  
  54. * Theory take 2
  55. 1. (focused energy + xx minutes) * once per day = idea manifestation
  56. Again, I don't add 30 minutes when it seems natural to multiply it.
  57. 2. (65/72 calories per minute) * 30 minutes = 27.0833 calories = idea manifestation
  58.  
  59. idea manifestation = 65/72 * MINUTES
  60. idea manifestation = 65/72 * 30 = 27.0833 calories
  61. idea manifestation = 27.0833 * 4.1868 = 113.39236 watts per half hour
