The SI (Systeme Internationale) unit of energy; used to express energy content of foods.
A unit of energy measurement in which 4.184 J equals 1 cal., or 4.184 kJ equals 1 kcal or 1 j equals 0.0002 kcal.
The SI unit of measurement of work or energy. 4.184 joules equals one calorie. Symbol J.
A unit of work or energy in the metric system. The amount of work done by a force of 1 N acting over a distance of 1 m.
The standard unit of work or energy; it is used in medicine to determine the extent of a person’s electrical injuries. A joule is equal to the work done when the point of application of a force of 1 newton is displaced through a distance of 1 meter in the direction of the force. In electrical measurement, a joule is the work done per second when a current of 1 ampere flows through a resistance of 1 ohm. The symbol used for joule is J.
The SI unit of work or energy, equal to the work done when the point of application of a force of 1 newton is displaced through a distance of 1 meter in the direction of the force. In electrical terms the joule is the work done per second when a current of 1 ampere flows through a resistance of 1 ohm.
The unit of energy in the International System of Units. The official abbreviation is J. 4,186-8 J = 1 calorie (or kilocalorie).
The work done in one second by a current of one ampere against a resistance of one ohm. One kilogram calorie (kcal or Calorie) is equal to 4185.5 J. One calorie (small calorie) equals 4.1855 J.
A measure of energy or effort, quantified as the amount of heat required to elevate the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius, equivalent to 4,186 joules.
The global standard for measuring energy, work, and heat is the joule (represented as J). Roughly, 4,200 joules or 4.2 kilojoules (kJ) is equivalent to 1 kilocalorie (kcal). Additionally, 1 kJ corresponds to around 0.24 kcal.
