Answer : The correct option is, (B) 54.3 Btu

Explanation :

The conversion used from Joules to Btu is:

1 Btu = 1055.06 J

or,


1J=(1)/(1055.06)\text{ Btu}

As we are given that the energy 57281 J. Now we have to determine the energy in Btu.

As,
1J=(1)/(1055.06)\text{ Btu}

So,
57281J=(57281J)/(1J)* (1)/(1055.06)\text{ Btu}=54.3\text{ Btu}

Therefore, the correct option is, (B) 54.3 Btu
