Question

An office heater puts out 2070 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? energy produced: MJ/year

Step 1

055 kJ/Btu = 2183.85 kJ Now, we need to find out how many kJ are produced per day: 2183.85 kJ/hour * 24 hours/day = 52372.4 kJ/day Show more…
