Marathon runners stay cool by getting water at various


Marathon runners stay cool by getting water at various "water stations" along the route.

A)  Calculate the change in body temperature for a "standard man" associated with rapidly drinking 200 g of cold water at a temperature of 4 oC. 

B)  Instead of drinking the water, you could also dump the water on your skin and lose energy by evaporation. Calculate the change in body temperature by rapidly evaporating 50% of the water (100 g) from your skin. You can neglect the energy change associated with the change in temperature of the water - you only need to consider the evaporation.
