What formula do I use the find :
1. How much energy is absorbed by water?
2. amount of heat produced per gram of fuel burned?

Water absorbs energy through a process called convection, where heat energy from the surroundings is transferred to the water molecules, causing them to vibrate and increase in temperature.
The amount of energy absorbed by water can be affected by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the amount of water present. The type of energy being absorbed, such as heat or light, can also impact the amount absorbed.
The energy absorbed by water can be used in various ways, such as to increase the temperature of the water, to power turbines for electricity generation, or to fuel biological processes in aquatic organisms.
The energy absorbed by water is either released back into the environment through processes like evaporation or used for various purposes as mentioned above. It can also be transferred to other substances that come into contact with the water.
The energy absorbed by water is typically measured in joules (J) or calories (cal). Scientists use specialized equipment, such as calorimeters, to measure the amount of energy absorbed by water under controlled conditions.
