Unveil the simplicity of converting dietary energy from Calorie IT to Attojoule (cal to aJ) units. This tool sparks curiosity and ensures precise calculations for scientific and nutritional accuracy.
A calorie (cal) is a unit of energy specifically used to measure the amount of energy food provides to the human body. One calorie is theoretically the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.
Definition of AttojouleAn attojoule (aJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 10^-18 joules. It represents a very small amount of energy, often used in scientific contexts to measure minuscule energy levels, such as those in particle physics.
Calorie IT (cal) | Attojoule (aJ) |
---|---|
1 cal | 4.184 x 10^18 aJ |
10 cal | 4.184 x 10^19 aJ |
50 cal | 2.092 x 10^20 aJ |
100 cal | 4.184 x 10^20 aJ |
200 cal | 8.368 x 10^20 aJ |
300 cal | 1.2552 x 10^21 aJ |
400 cal | 1.6736 x 10^21 aJ |
500 cal | 2.092 x 10^21 aJ |
1000 cal | 4.184 x 10^21 aJ |
10000 cal | 4.184 x 10^22 aJ |
1 cal = 4.184 x 10^18 aJ
Example 1:
Convert 5 cal to aJ:
5 cal = 5 x 4.184 x 10^18 aJ = 2.092 x 10^19 aJ
Example 2:
Convert 150 cal to aJ:
150 cal = 150 x 4.184 x 10^18 aJ = 6.276 x 10^20 aJ
A brief history of the conversion from Calorie IT to Attojoule traces back to the need for precise energy measurements in both nutrition and physics. This dual applicability has made the converter a vital tool for dieticians and scientists alike.
Explore the real-world implications where converting Calorie IT to Attojoule plays a pivotal role in scientific analysis and nutritional planning.
Example 1:
To convert 75 Calorie IT to Attojoule:
