Solution

To calculate the energy transferred, we need to use the formula for energy which is:

Energy (Joules) = Power (Watts) x Time (Seconds)

First, we need to convert the time from minutes to seconds because the standard unit of time in this context is seconds.

1 minute = 60 seconds So, 40 minutes = 40 x 60 = 2400 seconds

Then we substitute the given values into the formula:

Energy = 800 W x 2400 s = 1,920,000 Joules

Therefore, the energy transferred is 1.92 MJ (since 1 MJ = 1,000,000 Joules).
