Dry firewood with a mass of 0.44 tons, or will oil with a mass of 100 kg release more heat?

md = 0.44 t = 440 kg.

mn = 100 kg.

qd = 1 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg.

qн = 4.4 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg.

Qd -?

Qн -?

The amount of thermal energy Q, which is released during fuel combustion, is determined by the formula: Q = q * m, where q is the specific heat of combustion of the fuel, m is the mass of the fuel that has burned.

Qd = qd * md.

Qd = 1 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg * 440 kg = 440 * 10 ^ 7 J.

Qн = qн * mн.

Qн = 4.4 * 10 ^ 7 J / kg * 100 kg = 440 * 10 ^ 7 J.

Answer: the same amount of thermal energy will be released from firewood and oil Q = 440 * 10 ^ 7 J.
