1 gallon= 8 lb
130F-50F=80F
12G*8LB*80F=7680 BTU

∙ 12y agoThat's going to depend on how much water you're responsible for. Teacup at 60 degrees . . . very few BTU. Swimming pool at 60 degrees . . . many more BTU. It's also going to depend on whether you're talking about Celsius or Fahrenheit degrees. Fahrenheit degrees . . . fewer BTU. Celsius degrees . . . more BTU. (Also, the water will escape as you pass 100.) In general, one BTU is approximately the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit. You can take it from there, when you reach the job site and determine the exact scope of the work.
200 BTU. I'm assuming your temperatures are in Fahrenheit, since all of your other measurements are in the Imperial system. A BTU is defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 pound water by 1 degree F, so the temperature is raised by 20 degrees, and 10 pounds of water: 20 x 10 = 200
A joule is a measurement of energy. A degree Fahrenheit is a measurement of temperature. It is not possible to convert between one and the other.
If you want to be pedantic, scientists measure temperature in kelvins, not degrees. Heat is energy and is measured in energy units, like joules.
Absolute 0 is negative two hundred and seventy three degrees Fahrenheit, the kelvin scale measure's this. Absolute is were no molecular movement is made. Are you positive about the -273 degrees Fahrenheit measured by the Kelvin scale? ^^ Abs. 0 = -273.15 K, or -459.67 degrees F, where molecular movement would not have enough energy to transfer electrons and thus create molecular or ionic bonds. Molecular kinetic energy is at 0.
Thermal energy is a measure of the internal energy of a system and is not dependent on the unit of temperature used. Therefore, the thermal energy at 0 degrees Celsius would be the same as at 48 degrees Fahrenheit.
Heat energy is typically measured in joules (J) or calories (cal). Degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit are units of temperature, not energy.
Temperature is usually measured with a thermometer which tells you how many degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit the temperature is (Fahrenheit is the American measure and Celsius is what everyone else uses)
Yes, heat can be measured in degrees Fahrenheit, which is a unit of temperature commonly used in the United States.
BTUs, or British Thermal Units, measure the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. The formula to calculate BTUs is: BTUs = weight of water (in pounds) x temperature change (in degrees Fahrenheit) x 1. Alternatively, the formula can be expressed as: BTUs = (Flow rate in gallons per minute x change in temperature in degrees Fahrenheit) / 500.
Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold a substance is, determined by the average kinetic energy of the particles in the substance. Temperature is typically measured in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
No, the joule is a unit of energy, not temperature. Temperature is typically measured in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Absolute zero is -273.15 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, particles have minimum movement and energy.
Heat energy is measured as temperature in Kelvins [K] (also degrees Celsius [°C] and degrees Fahrenheit [°F]) and tells us the average kinetic energy of the molecules.
-273.15 degrees Celsius (-459.67 degrees Fahrenheit) is the temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter.It is called Absolute Zero and marks the 0 for the Kelvin and Rankine scale.
If you are asking why a green heating system will not go above 68 degrees Fahrenheit then one reason is to save energy. The higher the temperature the more energy required to get to that temperature and the more energy required to keep that temperature.
The temperature at which molecular energy is at a minimum is known as absolute zero, which is equivalent to 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, molecular motion ceases, and particles have the least possible energy.
