You like the old units! I'll work in SI then give you the answer in BTU. Specific heat capacity of lead = 0.127 KJ.Kg-1.C-1 (kilojoules per kilogram per deg C). 45 lb = 20.41 kg.

100 - 62 = 38 deg F = 21.11 degC.

So heat energy = 0.127 x 20.41 x 21.11 = 54.72 KJ. 1 KJ = 0.9478 BTU

Is a green heating system unable to go beyond 68 degrees?

If you are asking why a green heating system will not go above 68 degrees Fahrenheit then one reason is to save energy. The higher the temperature the more energy required to get to that temperature and the more energy required to keep that temperature.


What is the amount of energy in plasma?

It can vary; a plasma can have a temperature of a few thousand degrees, or millions, or even billions of degrees - in each case, the amount of energy will be different. Of course, the amount of energy will also depend on the amount of plasma we are talking about.
