Converting from Watt second (W s) to Calorie (cal) | Energy

What is Watt second (W s)

Watt second (W s) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt of power expended for one second. It is commonly used in the scientific and engineering fields to measure energy transfer and consumption.

What is Calorie (cal)

Calorie (cal) is a unit of energy commonly used in nutrition to measure the energy content in food. One calorie is equivalent to the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Watt second (W s) to Calorie (cal), you can use the following formula:

Calorie (cal)=Watt second (W s)×0.2388459

To convert from Calorie (cal) to Watt second (W s), you can use the formula:

Watt second (W s)=Calorie (cal)×4.1868
