What is Energy?
Energy is the capacity of a physical system to do work or produce heat. The SI unit is the joule (J), defined as the work done when a force of one newton is applied over one meter (1 J = 1 N·m = 1 kg·m²/s²). Other important units include the kilowatt-hour (kWh)—used on electricity bills (1 kWh = 3.6 MJ)—the calorie (cal)—used in nutrition (1 food Calorie = 1 kcal = 4,184 J)—and the electronvolt (eV), used in atomic and particle physics (1 eV = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J).
What is Foot-poundal?
Foot-poundal (symbol: ft·pdl) is a unit of energy in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to the work done when a force of one poundal acts through a distance of one foot. One foot-poundal is equal to approximately 0.04214 joule. Learn more about foot-poundal.
What is Foot-pound Force?
Foot-pound force (symbol: ft·lbf or ft-lbf) is a unit of energy or work in the Imperial and US customary measurement systems, equal to the work done when a force of one pound-force is applied through a distance of one foot. Foot-pound force is widely used in American mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, and machinery design. It is commonly converted to joule, calorie, kilowatt-hour, and British thermal unit (BTU). Learn more about foot-pound force.
