| The amount of heat that will be released during the complete combustion of dry firewood is calculated using the formula:
Q = q * m, where Q is the released amount of heat, q is the specific heat of combustion of dry wood (we take the specific heat of combustion for dry wood q = 1 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg), m is the mass of dry wood (m = 15 kg ).
Let’s calculate the amount of heat received by the bodies around the fire:
Q = q * m = 1 * 10 ^ 7 * 15 = 15 * 10 ^ 7 J = 150 MJ.
Answer: The bodies around the fire received 150 MJ of heat.
