The per capita data for many countries may be slightly inaccurate as population data may not be for the same year as the consumption data. Population data were obtained mainly from the IMF [3] in 2021 with some exceptions, in which case they were obtained from the Wikipedia pages for the corresponding countries/territories.
One terawatt hour of energy is equal to a sustained power delivery of one terawatt for one hour, or approximately 114 megawatts for a period of one year: Power output = energy / time 1 terawatt hour per year = 1 × 10 12 W·h / (365 days × 24 hours per day) ≈ 114 million watts, equivalent to approximately 114 megawatts of constant power output.
Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time.. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: = =
The watt, kilogram, joule, and the second are part of the International System of Units (SI). The hour is not, though it is accepted for use with the SI. Since a watt equals one joule per second and because one hour equals 3600 seconds, one watt-hour per kilogram can be expressed in SI units as 3600 joules per kilogram.
3.6×10 3 J: ≡ 1 W·h (watt-hour) [59] 4.2×10 3 J: Energy released by explosion of 1 gram of TNT [59] [99] 4.2×10 3 J: ≈ 1 food Calorie (large calorie) ~7×10 3 J: Muzzle energy of an elephant gun, e.g. firing a .458 Winchester Magnum [100] 8.5×10 3 J Kinetic energy of a regulation baseball thrown at the speed of sound (343 m/s = 767 mph ...
All the SI prefixes are commonly applied to the watt-hour: a kilowatt-hour (kWh) is 1,000 Wh; a megawatt-hour (MWh) is 1 million Wh; a milliwatt-hour (mWh) is 1/1,000 Wh and so on. The kilowatt-hour is commonly used by electrical energy providers for purposes of billing, since the monthly energy consumption of a typical residential customer ...
This metric, typically denoted in watts per cubic meter (W/m 3), serves as a fundamental measure for evaluating the efficacy and capability of various devices, systems, and materials based on their spatial energy distribution. The concept of power density finds extensive application in physics, engineering, electronics, and energy technologies.
