The unit of work is named after James Prescott Joule because it was his research that demonstrated the concept of energy conservation. Joule worked in his father's brewery from an early age, a job that gave him further opportunity for experimentation.
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.

The watts were named after James Watt... actually I'mm lieing :)

The joule (J) is named after James Prescott Joule. One joule is defined as the amount of work done by a force of one newton moving an object through a distance of one metre.
he was the one who discovered that Mechanical Energy(ME) and heat were proportional
The metric unit used to determine electricity supply is called the Joule. The Joule is named after James Prescott Joule. When one wants to measure the power of the Joule, it gets measure in Watts. The Watt is named after James Watt. The Joule is a unit of energy. The unit of electric charge, or "quantity of electricity", is the Coulomb (named after French physicist Charles Augustin de Coulomb). One amp equals one coulomb per second.
