$A$ copper voltameter is connected in parallel with a heater coil of resistance $0.1\,\Omega$. $A$ current is passed for $20\,\text{minutes}$,resulting in the deposition of $0.99\,\text{g}$ of copper on the cathode. If the electrochemical equivalent of copper is $0.00033\,\text{g/C}$,the heat produced in the coil is ........... $J$.
