Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
What else can I help you with?
A unit of energy is the unit of what?
... is called power. The SI unit for energy is the joule; the SI unit for power is joule/second = watt.
What is a large unit of heat energy called?
A large unit of heat energy is called a British Thermal Unit (BTU). It is commonly used to measure the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
The energy stored in food is measured in units called?
Calories. Actually the unit called Calorie in food energy is the Kilocalorie, ie 1000 calories.
What is the energy per unit mass required to complete a phase change called?
The energy per unit mass required to complete a phase change is called the latent heat. It represents the energy needed to change the state of a substance without changing its temperature.
Why is the joule the SI unit of energy also the appropriate unit for measuring heat?
Quite simply, because heat is also a form of energy. It has been found that a certain amount of mechanical energy is equivalent to a certain amount of heat energy; it makes sense to use the same unit for all kinds of energy.
A unit of energy is the unit of what?
... is called power. The SI unit for energy is the joule; the SI unit for power is joule/second = watt.
Why unit of heat is the same with energy?
Heat is a energy form.So unit of heat is the same as energy
The metric unit for work is also called a?
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. The SI unit is called "Joule".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. The SI unit is called "Joule".
The unit of energy is the same as what?
The unit for energy is the joule. That's also the unit for work and for heat - both of which refer to energy transfers.
Is the unit of energy?
the energy unit is called joules
What is a large unit of heat energy called?
A large unit of heat energy is called a British Thermal Unit (BTU). It is commonly used to measure the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
The energy stored in food is measured in units called?
Calories. Actually the unit called Calorie in food energy is the Kilocalorie, ie 1000 calories.
What unit of measurement is used for heat?
Heat is a form of energy and so the appropriate unit is a Joule.
What is the energy per unit is called?
The energy per unit charge is called the potentialdifference.
What is the energy per unit mass required to complete a phase change called?
The energy per unit mass required to complete a phase change is called the latent heat. It represents the energy needed to change the state of a substance without changing its temperature.
What is the use of heat as a convenient measurement of chemical energy in any reaction?
Energy is measured in joules. Sometimes the older unit "calorie" is used instead - this is a unit defined on the basis of heat, but it is still a unit of energy.
What is the SI unit symbol for heat energy?
Heat is a form of energy. In terms of kinetic theory it can be defined asthe sum of kinetic energy of molecules in a sample of a substance.-- Its SI unit is the Joule.-- Its CGS unit is the erg = 10-7 joule.Comment'Heat' is energy in transit between a warmer body and a cooler body. The definition given in the original answer is for 'internal energy', not heat.
