  2. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    The kinetic energy of a 2 kg mass travelling at 1 m/s, or a 1 kg mass travelling at 1.41 m/s. The energy required to lift an apple up 1 m, assuming the apple has a mass of 101.97 g. The heat required to raise the temperature of 0.239 g of water from 0 °C to 1 °C. [15] The kinetic energy of a 50 kg human moving very slowly (0.2 m/s or 0.72 km/h).

  3. Units of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_energy

    Energy is defined via work, so the SI unit of energy is the same as the unit of work – the joule (J), named in honour of James Prescott Joule [1] and his experiments on the mechanical equivalent of heat. In slightly more fundamental terms, 1 joule is equal to 1 newton metre and, in terms of SI base units

    Kinetic energy of 800 gram [87] standard men's javelin thrown at > 30 m/s [88] by elite javelin throwers [89] 5–20×10 2 J: Energy output of a typical photography studio strobe light in a single flash [90] 6×10 2 J: Use of a 10-watt flashlight for 1 minute 7.5×10 2 J: A power of 1 horsepower applied for 1 second [59] 7.8×10 2 J

  5. Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

    Thus, one joule is one watt-second, and 3600 joules equal one watt-hour. The CGS energy unit is the erg and the imperial and US customary unit is the foot pound . Other energy units such as the electronvolt , food calorie or thermodynamic kcal (based on the temperature change of water in a heating process), and BTU are used in specific areas of ...

  6. Mass–energy equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence

    In the SI system (expressing the ratio ⁠ E / m ⁠ in joules per kilogram using the value of c in metres per second): [35] ⁠ E / m ⁠ = c 2 = (299 792 458 m/s) 2 = 89 875 517 873 681 764 J/kg (≈ 9.0 × 10 16 joules per kilogram). So the energy equivalent of one kilogram of mass is 89.9 petajoules; 25.0 billion kilowatt-hours (≈ 25,000 ...
