An office heater puts out 2050 btus of energy in the form of heat per hour. given that 1 btus = 1.055 kj, how many megajoules of energy in the form of heat can be produced per year (365 days) by a heater. (assume continuous operation)

    Assuming continuous operation (24/7), we can say that

    Energy produced : Energy per hour * 24 (number of hours in a day) - 365 (number of days in a year.

    Energy per hour: 2050 * 1.055 = 2162.75 kg.

    So, we proceed to calculate the results

    E: 2162.75 * 24 * 365 = 18,945,690 kj per year.

    Now, we transform kj to megajoule, remembering that kilo is 10*3 and mega is 1'*6, so we divide the result by 1,000 in order to get the results in megajoules, and the answer would be:

    18,945.69 megajoules can be produced per year.
