he was famous for his scientific ways as in-his father owned a brewery and he used these premises to conduct exhaustive experiments to determine the link between gravitational potential energy and the equivalent heating of a bath of water.
James Prescott Joule (December 24, 1818- October 11, 1889) was an English physicist who established that the various forms of energy, mechanical, electrical, and heat, are the same and can be changed into each other. He formed the basis of the first law of thermodynamics, the conservation of energy.
His biggest contribution was the study of mechanical enery and the fact that it could be turned into heat energy.
In 1843 he established that heat is a form of energy.
He studied Physics.
James Prescott Joule (December 24, 1818- October 11, 1889) was a British physicist, who contributed to the understanding of electricity and heat. The SI unit for amount of heat is named after him.
No, he was not. LeBron James has played for two teams, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat.
lebron James used to play for the Cleveland cavs but after his free agency in the summer of 2010 he now plays for the Miami heat

He discovered Mechanical eqivalent heat ...... durr :P
Joule also invented 'arc' or. electrical welding, and thedisplacement pumpHe invented the displacement pump. He invented the electric wield. He invented the Heat Apparatus. AND MORE!
he was the one who discovered that Mechanical Energy(ME) and heat were proportional

James Prescott Joule was born in Salford, Manchester, on the December 24th 1818 and died on the October 11th 1889 (aged 70), Sale, Cheshire, England, UK. He was known as the first law of Thermodynamics. James studied at Physical Activity.He discovered that the different forms of energy- electrical, mechanical, and heat- can be changed from one to the other and are intrinsically the same. On this he based the law of conservation of energy.
James Prescott Joule was an English physicist and brewer, born in Salford, Lancashire. During the 19th century, Joule studied the nature of heat, and discovered its relationship to mechanical work. This led to the theory of conservation of energy, which led to the development of the first law of thermodynamics. The unit of energy, the joule, is named after him. A Joule is: One watt/second, 0.8 calories, or 0.00134 horsepower/seconds. The significance of Mr Joule's brewery interest is that beer brewing requires accurate temperature control, and a brewer has accurate thermometers.
James Joule is famous for his work studying heat and the law of conservation of energy. The SI measurement the joule is named after him.
James Joule was a physicist who studied heat and is credited with the discovery of how heat related to mechanical work. His discoveries and studies led to the law of conservation of energy.
1. He was an English physicist and brewer. 2. He studied the nature of heat. 3. These studies led to the discovery of the Law of Conservation of Energy. 4. He lends his name to a unit of energy, the joule. 5. He has a memorial in Westminster Abbey, though he is not buried there.
