    3,343.68kJ

    Explanation:

    Heat energy used up can be calculated using the formula:

    H = mcΔt

    m = mass oof the object (in kg) = 20kg

    c = specific heat capacity of water = 4179.6J/kg°C

    Δt change in temperature = 80-40 = 40°C

    H = 20 * 4179.6 * 40

    H = 3,343,680Joules

    H = 3,343.68kJ
