The quantity of energy transferred is equal to 18,485,376 Joules.

Given the following data:

  • Mass of water = 16 kg
  • Specific heat capacity of water = c = 4186 J/kgK
  • Temperature = 3°C

Conversion:

Temperature = 3°C to Kelvin = [tex]273+3=276\;K[/tex]

To calculate the quantity of energy transferred:

Mathematically, quantity of energy is given by the formula;

[tex]Q = mct[/tex]

Where:

  • Q represents the quantity of energy.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity.
  • t represents the temperature.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Q = 16\times 4186 \times 276[/tex]

Quantity of energy, Q = 18,485,376 Joules
