In the SI system of units it is the Joule, which is the work done in moving 1 meter against a force of 1 Newton. 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second. You can also use the foot.pound or foot. pound force if you are working in feet and pounds. 1 ftlbf = 1.356 joule.
For thermal energy the SI unit is the calorie, equal to 4.2 joule, or you can use BTU, equal to 1.055 kilojoule
Calorie.
Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
The customary unit is called the Btu, or British thermal unit. The metric unit is the joule. The joule is the standard metric unit for measuring any type of energy, including heat.
"Heat", as used in physics, refers to heat energy - and the unit for any type of energy is the joule.
Calories. Actually the unit called Calorie in food energy is the Kilocalorie, ie 1000 calories.
All types of energy are measured in joules. Heat is a type of energy.
Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
Heat is a energy form.So unit of heat is the same as energy

Work is transfer of energy; thus, the unit of work is the same as the unit of energy. The SI unit is called "Joule".Work is transfer of energy; thus, the unit of work is the same as the unit of energy.

The unit for energy is the joule. That's also the unit for work and for heat - both of which refer to energy transfers.
Heat is a form of energy and so the appropriate unit is a Joule.
the energy unit is called joules
Energy is measured in joules. Sometimes the older unit "calorie" is used instead - this is a unit defined on the basis of heat, but it is still a unit of energy.
The energy per unit charge is called the potentialdifference.
The most common units of heat are the Calorie, Joule and BTU (British thermal unit) heat is a form of energy.
