Calorie (cal) to Joule (J) converter
Converting from Calorie (cal) to Joule (J) | Energy
What is Calorie (cal)
Calorie (cal) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in nutrition to measure the energy content of food and beverages. It is equivalent to the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
What is Joule (J)
Joule (J) is the SI unit of energy, work, and heat. It is commonly used in physics to measure energy transfer or mechanical work. One joule is defined as the amount of energy transferred when a force of 1 newton acts over a distance of 1 meter.
