British Thermal Unit, , a unit measurement of heat or energy, usually abbreviated as Btu or BTU. One Btu was originally defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 lb (0.45 kg) of water from 59.5° F (15.3° C) to 60.5° F (15.8° C) at constant pressure of 1 atmosphere;
The SI unit for all forms of energy is the joule: defined as Kilograms meters2/second2
Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin.

∙ 11y agoThe derived unit for thermal energy is:
= (J) Joules
Which this formula can prove right:
(Thermal heat) Q=mL
Q=(kg)(J•kg-1)
(Addition of a positive and negative exponent as they are multiplyed are cancelled out)
Q=J (joules)

Do the sun have thermal energy?
Yes.Thermal energy is energy that is derived from heat.
What exactly is the definition of a british thermal unit?
A British thermal unit is a unit of energy that is equal to about 1055 joules. A British thermal unit is the amount of energy that is needed to heat or cool one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
What is the unit to to measure thermal energy?
The customary unit is called the Btu, or British thermal unit. The metric unit is the joule. The joule is the standard metric unit for measuring any type of energy, including heat.
What is the English measurement of thermal energy?
Traditionally the BTU (British Thermal Unit), but now we usually use kilojoules
Joule is the derived unit for energy?
Yes.
Is thermal energy derived from the wind?
If you refer to the definitions: No. Thermal energy is heat energy. Energy derived from the wind is known as wind energy, also as eolic energy.
What are the difference between potential energy kinetic energy and thermal energy?
potential energy- is derived chemically from something kinetic energy-is derived from something by the motion the object has thermal energy-is derived by heat or cold

Do the sun have thermal energy?
Yes.Thermal energy is energy that is derived from heat.
What is the suffix for thermal energy?
The suffix for thermal energy is "ies" as in "energies". The word "thermal" is derived from German. Thus the suffix for thermal is "en" as in "thermalen".
What is the Si base unit for energy?
There is no SI Base Unit for energy. The unit for energy, the joule is a Derived Unit.

The SI unit of electrical mechanical and thermal energy?
Joule
What units thermal energy?
The same as for any other type of energy. The SI unit for energy is the joule.
