Unit Definitions
What is a Megajoule (MJ)?
A Megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy equal to one million joules, used to measure work or heat energy.
History
The joule was named after James Prescott Joule, a British physicist, in the mid-19th century. The megajoule, as a multiple, became prevalent in the late 20th century as energy consumption and production were quantified more rigorously.
Current Use
Today, Megajoules are widely used in various applications, including electricity consumption, heating, and in mechanical systems.

The Newton-Meter (N·m) is a derived unit of torque, representing the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to a moment arm that is one meter long.
History
The Newton-Meter is named after Sir Isaac Newton and the meter, a standard unit of length. It became a standard unit in the International System of Units (SI) established in 1960.
Current Use
Newton-Meters are commonly used in engineering, physics, and mechanics, particularly in contexts involving rotational forces and work.
