Technically, there is no difference because both are measured and calculated in the same way. The only difference is how they occur or appear in nature.
Joule is a measure of energy, also called work, and it doesn't matter what type of energy it is. Work is normally used to describe mechanical energy but it is still measured in Joules.
The difference of a Joule of Work and Joule of Energy is the difference between a scalar and a vector, direction! Energy is a quaternion number consisting of a scalar energy and vector energy. Unfortunately, this fact is not realized by physicists. Work is defined as a scalar energy W=F.D = - FDcos(x) Vector energy is Torque T=FxD = FD sin(x).
With customary allowances for grammar, there's no difference. "Joule" is a unit used to describe quantities of work or energy.
It doesn't "work"; a joule is the unit for energy or for work.
Joule is a unit of work, and of energy.
Energy and work are measured in joules.
The SI unit for both work and energy is the joule.
joule (measurement of energy) joule is the work or energy in international system of units.
joule (measurement of energy) joule is the work or energy in international system of units.
Joules (J) . . . . but a Joule is quite a small amount of energy, so kilojoule is more common (kJ).
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.
