1 kilowatt = 1000 joules per second, so it will take 480 seconds. (8 minutes).
You can't convert from Joules to Watts because Joules is a measure of total energy, and Watts measure energy per second.
It's basically the same as the glow wires in a toaster, or the filament in an incandescent light bulb. When a current is passed through the element, the resistance makes the element heat up.Another AnswerWhen an electric current passes through the heating element, it does work on the heating element, water, and the kettle itself. This causes the internal energy of the element, water, and kettle to rise, and this is accompanied by an increase in temperature. When the temperature exceeds that of the surroundings, some energy is lost to the surroundings through heat transfer. The equation that describes this is:W - Q = [m c (T2 - T1)]water +[m c (T2 - T1)]kettleWhere:W = work done (joules)Q = heat transfer (joules)m = mass (kilograms)c = specific heat capacity (joules per kilogram kelvin)T2 = final temperature (kelvin)T1 = initial temperature (kelvin)
A therm is an energy unit (equal to 100000 BTU) while kilowatts are power (energy/time). 1 watt = 1 Joule/second, and 1 kilowatt = 1000 Joules/second. The kilowatt hour is an energy unit (power X time = energy). 1 therm = 29.31 kWh

No, to convert from cal. to joules 1 cal. = 4.18400 joules , then 1KCal = (4.18400 *10^-3) joules so 3.25 kcal doesn't equal 3.25 Joules
1 kilowatt hour = 3,600,000 Joules 1 Tetrajoule = 1,000,000 Joules 1 kilowatt hour = 3.6 Tetrajoules
Kilowatt is a measure of the rate of energy use. It is 1,000 Watts or 1,000 Joules per second. A kilowatt hour is 1,000 Joules per second for 3,600 seconds or 3,600,000 Joules. This means a Kilowatt hour not a rate but a measure of total energy used.
A BTU is about 1055 joules. A kilowatt is 1000 joules/second, so it is 3,600,000 joules/hour. Dividing that by 1055 joules gives you the equivalent of about 3400 BTU/hour.
If an electric heating element is connected to a 110 volt circuit and a current of 3.2 amp is flowing through the element, 63.36 million joules of energy is used up during a period of 5 hours. This is also 1.76 kilowatt-hours.110V times 3.2A equals 352 watts (joules per second).352 watts times 3600 seconds per hour times 5 hours equals 63,360,000 joules.
365 kilowatt-hours is 1,314,000,000 joules.
Well since Joule is the standard unit a Megajoule (1 million joules) or a kilojoule (1000 joules) can be used. Also a kilowatt-hour (3.6 million joules) is used by electric companies to keep track of the energy people use.
The kilowatt (kW) is one thousand watts.
Kilowatt-hour (KWh) which is an energy unit equivalent to a power of 1000 Watts running for 1 hour = 1000x3600 Joules =3.6million Joules. 1 kWh is sometimes called in the trade " 1 unit".
Killo = 1000. There are 1000 watts in 1 kw.
The energy 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) is 3600000 joules.AnswerThere is no such thing as a 'kilowatt per hour'. You probably mean 'kilowatt hour'?
These do not have the same units. 1 kilowatt hour per meter cubed is in kg m-1 s-2 1 kilojoule per kg is in m2 s-2
Joules x 0.000000278 = kW/h
