What are Calorie and Ton

Definition of Calorie

A Calorie (symbol: cal) is a unit of energy. Specifically, it is defined as the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere. This unit is commonly used in nutrition to quantify the energy content in food.

Definition of Ton

A Ton, particularly in the context of explosives, refers to a unit of energy equivalent to the explosive power of one ton of TNT (trinitrotoluene). It is used to describe the energy release of explosions, often in military or mining operations. One ton of TNT is equivalent to 4.184 gigajoules.
