Unit Definitions
What is a Megajoule (MJ)?
The Megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one million joules.
History
The term 'joule' is named after the British physicist James Prescott Joule, who studied the nature of heat and energy transformations in the 19th century. The megajoule is commonly used in fields like physics, engineering, and nutrition.
Current Use
Today, megajoules are widely used for measuring energy in various applications, from electrical energy consumption to food energy.

The Watt-hour (Wh) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt of power used for one hour.
History
The watt-hour is derived from the watt, which is named after James Watt, an inventor known for improving the steam engine. It has been used since the late 19th century as a standard measure of electrical energy.
Current Use
Watt-hours are commonly used in household energy consumption measurements, electric vehicle ranges, and to assess the energy capacity of batteries.
