Converting from Kilojoule (kJ) to Joule (J) | Energy

What is Kilojoule (kJ)

Kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy in the metric system. It is equal to 1000 joules (J). This unit is commonly used to measure the energy content in food and beverages.

What is Joule (J)

Joule (J) is the standard unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the amount of work done when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. Joules are used to quantify energy, work, and heat.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion between kilojoules (kJ) and joules (J) is straightforward. The default conversions are:

  • 1kJ=1000J
