Question

An office heater puts out 2090 Btu (British thermal units) of energy in the form of heat per hour. Given that 1 Btu=1.055 kJ, how many megajoules of energy in the form of heat can be produced per year (365 days) by the heater, assuming continuous operation?

Answer 1

Answer:

Total energy produced  19135.362 MJ/year

Explanation:

given details:

total energy produced = 2090 Btu per hour

1 Btu = 1.055kJ

Total energy produced per year in mega joule is = 2090*1.055 *365*24

                                                                                = 19315362 KJ/year

In mega joule per year $= \frac{19315362}{1000}$

mega joule per year = 19135.362 MJ/year
