Assume Lake Michigan contains 4.90 x 1012 m³ of water, and assume the water's density is that of water at 20°C and
1 atm.
(a) How much energy (in J) is required to raise the temperature of that volume of water from 12.2°C to 24.4°C?

From the density of water and the volume, what is the mass of the water? What is specific heat? How is it related to
the energy input, mass, and temperature change? Use it to solve for the energy. Be careful with units. J
