    Q' = 8 KW. h

    Q'=28800 KJ

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Heat Q = 4 KW

    time, t = 2 hours

    The amount of energy used in KWh given as

    Q ' = Q x t

    Q' = 4 x 2 KW. h

    Q' = 8 KW. h

    We know that

    1 h = 60 min = 60 x 60 s = 3600 s

    We know that W = 1 J/s

    The amount of energy used in KJ given as

    Q' = 8 x 3600 = 28800 KJ

    Therefore

    Q' = 8 KW. h

    Q'=28800 KJ
