Latent heat of vaporization related question


A storm cloud and the ground represent the plates of a capacitor. During a storm, the capacitor has a potential difference of 2.50 108 V between its plates and a charge of 40.0 C. A lightning strike delivers 1.00% of the energy of the capacitor to a tree on the ground. How much sap in the tree can be boiled away? Model the sap as water initially at 32.0°C. Water has a specific heat of 4 186 J/kg · °C, a boiling point of 100°C, and a latent heat of vaporization of 2.26 x 106 J/kg. kg
