Unit Definitions
What is a Kilowatt-hour (kWh)?
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one kilowatt (1 kW) of power used for one hour.
History
The concept of the kilowatt-hour emerged in the late 19th century as electrical grids expanded, enabling the measurement of energy consumption for billing purposes. It has since become a standard unit in the energy industry, allowing consumers to track their electricity usage effectively.
Current Use
Today, kWh is widely used in residential and commercial energy billing, allowing consumers to understand their energy consumption and costs.

The newton-meter (N·m) is a unit of torque or moment, defined as the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to a moment arm that is one meter long.
History
The newton-meter has its origins in classical mechanics and is named after Sir Isaac Newton, who made foundational contributions to the understanding of force and motion. It was standardized in the late 19th century as part of the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
Currently, the newton-meter is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify torque in mechanical systems, making it essential for calculations involving rotational forces.
