Kilojoules
A Kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 joules. It is commonly used to measure energy in various scientific and engineering contexts, as well as in nutrition to quantify the energy content of foods. One kilojoule is the amount of energy required to apply a force of one newton over a distance of one kilometer, or the energy transferred when one kilowatt of power is applied for one second. Kilojoules are used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and engineering to quantify work, heat, and energy, providing a standard measure for comparing energy content and transfer across different systems and processes.
Kilowatt-hour
A Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy that measures the amount of electrical energy consumed or generated over time. One kilowatt-hour is equivalent to one kilowatt (1,000 watts) of power used or produced for one hour. This unit is commonly used to quantify energy usage in households, industries, and various devices. For example, if a 1,000-watt appliance runs for one hour, it consumes 1 kWh of energy. Kilowatt-hours are essential for understanding energy consumption, billing in electric utilities, and managing energy efficiency.
