A certain storm cloud has a potential difference of 1.00 3

Chapter , Problem 48

(choose chapter or problem)

A certain storm cloud has a potential difference of 1.00 3 108 V relative to a tree. If, during a lightning storm, 50.0 C of charge is transferred through this potential difference and 1.00% of the energy is absorbed by the tree, how much water (sap in the tree) initially at 30.08C can be boiled away? Water has a specific heat of 4 186 J/kg8C, a boiling point of 1008C, and a heat of vaporization of 2.26 3 106 J/kg.
