In SI, all energy is measured in joules. It doesn't matter what type of energy you are referring to.
Kj and KCal are units of energy. All energy can be measured in the same units, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can easily convert the chemical energy in food, to electrical energy.
The energy obtained from food is measured in units called calories. A calorie is a unit of energy that represents the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.
The amount of energy released when nutrients are broken down is measured in units called kilocalories (kcal) or joules (J). These units quantify the energy content of foods and are commonly used to represent the caloric value of food.
Energy can be measured in Joules (J) or in calories (cal). Joules are the standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), while calories are commonly used to measure the energy content of food.
Calories. Actually the unit called Calorie in food energy is the Kilocalorie, ie 1000 calories.
The energy in food is measured in kilo calories it is abbr. by CAL one calorie is abbr. cal. The case is the key.
The energy of food is measured by the kilo calories. It will be printed on each food packet's back.
The amount of energy in food is measured in kilojoules (kL)
No. Temperature is measured in degrees celsius. Thermal energy, which causes temperature change, is measured in calories or british thermal units. A calorie, not a food calorie, is the amount of heat necessary to raise 1 ml of water 1 degree celsius. 252 calories = 1 btu. 1 food calorie is actually equivalent to 1000 calories of heat.
Kilojoules.
There are more than 2 units of energy available to describe energy.Example of unitJoules (J) is the basis unit of energy in SI.Calories (Cal) is commonly use in food and is the unit of energy.Ton Oil Equivalents (TOE) commonly use to describe large amount of energy in fuel especially in national scale.British Thermal Units (BTU) commonly use in heating and cooling and describe heating value of fuel gas.kilo Watt hour (kWh) commonly use to describe electric energy by times the power with hour of usage.
Calories are units of energy provided by food.
