Heat energy required to increase the temperature of water in bathtub is 12,546,000 Joules.
What is thermal energy?
The energy contained by an object by virtue of heating is known as thermal energy.
Given is the mass of water m = 150 kg, Temperature change ΔT = (40 -20)= 20 °C
The specific heat of water Cp =4182 J/kg.°C
Heat transfer Q =m x Cp x ΔT
Q = 150 x 4182 x 20
Q = 12,546,000 J
Thus, Heat energy required to increase the temperature of water in bathtub is 12,546,000 Joules.
