Q = mcΔT Q = (1000 g)(4.18 J/(g*K))(5 K) Q = 20900 J Q = 20.9 kJ
energy = mass x specific heat x temperature change = 45 x 4.181 x 11 J = 2069.595 J
Change in temperature, dT,=1/m, where m is the amount of water, in kilograms. Depends on how much kilograms of water you have. The equation to use is Q=cm(dT), where c is the specific heat capacity of water (conventional use puts it 4186 J/(kg*C degrees)), m is the mass, in kilograms, of the water you're heating, dT is the amount of degrees, in Celsius (or Kelvin), that you want to heat the water by, and Q is the amount of energy needed, in Joules. 1 kilocalorie equals 4186J, solving for change in temperature (dT), dT=Q/(cm). Substituting in Q and c gives you dT=1/m. If you do not know the mass, but only volume, m=pV, where p is the density of water (convetionally 1 *10^3 kg/m^3) and V is the volume of the amount of water you have in m^3.

(75'C)x(1g) < (75'C)x(100g) .'. The second option has more thermal energy.
The most common unit of energy in Biology is calories. A calorie is a unit of energy, require to raise 1 kilogram of water to 4.1868 joules.

The amount of water whose temperature would change by 15 degrees Celsius when it absorbs 2646 joules of heat energy is 42,2g H2O.
If by "boil" you mean have it all evaporate, that takes MUCH more energy. For example, to increase the temperature of one gram of water from 20 to 100 degrees Celsius, you need 4.2 joules/gram/degree times 80 degrees = about 336 joules; then, to evaporate all the water, you need an additional 2257 joules.
4.1858 joules of energy will raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1oC. Thus, 4.1858 * 955 * 80 = 319795.12 joules of energy is required to raise the temperature of 955 g of water by 1oC.
1.3 kg water = 1300 grams. q(Joules-heat energy) = mass * specific heat * change in temperature q = (1300 g)(4.180 J/gC)(100 C - 20 C) = 4.3 X 105 Joules of heat energy ========================
It is a calorie
Each kilogram of water has 50 joules of gravitational potential energy at the top,and 50 joules of kinetic energy when it hits the bottom.For 8 million of them, that adds up to 400,000,000 joules(in each position).The formula for potential energy is mgh - mass x gravity x height. The above calculation didn't take into consideration the gravity - a factor of about 9.8.
It takes 4.186 Joules to heat one gram of water by 1-degree Celsius. 4.186 * 4000 = 16,744 Joules to heat 4 kilos of water by 1-degree. 16,744 * 70 = 1,172,080 Joules. The above assumes that one litre of water weighs exactly 1 Kilogram.
21 grams through 71 degrees is 21x71 calories.
Measured in joules, the process would take 334,584 J to occur completely.
