The official (SI) unit for energy is the joule.
One energy unit starting with C is a calorie, which is a unit of energy commonly used in nutrition to measure the energy content of food. Another energy unit is a coulomb, which measures electrical charge.
In SI, the same unit is used for any type of energy: the joule.
No. They're different. "Newton" is a unit of force. "Joule" is a unit of energy. A small force (1 newton) that pushes a basketball 10 miles can deliver more energy than a large force (a thousand newtons) that pushes it 1 foot.
1 kiloton is a unit of explosive energy equivalent to 1,000 metric tons of TNT. It measures the power of an explosion. Mile, on the other hand, is a unit of distance that measures how far something is. These two units measure completely different quantities - one measures energy and the other measures distance.
The Rad is a unit of ionizing radiation, measuring its energy distribution in air. A Rontgen is similar, but it measures the energy absorbed by an object. A REM is a Rontgen Equivalent Man, so it measures the energy absorbed by a human being.
The unit that measures the amount of energy released by nutrients is the calorie.
erg
calories.
The unit used to measure kinetic energy is the joule (J).
The SI unit for energy - any type of energy - is the joule. For food, another unit, the calorie, is still often used.
Quantity of electrical energy.
Work and energy are typically measured in joules (J).
... is called power. The SI unit for energy is the joule; the SI unit for power is joule/second = watt.
One energy unit starting with C is a calorie, which is a unit of energy commonly used in nutrition to measure the energy content of food. Another energy unit is a coulomb, which measures electrical charge.
No, it is the unit of Power. Where 1MW = 106 Watt
In SI, the same unit is used for any type of energy: the joule.
