Discover the simplicity of converting kcal to Ws with our Kilocalorie th to Watt-second Converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool sparks curiosity and simplifies energy conversions for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
A kilocalorie (th) is a unit of energy commonly used in nutrition to measure the energy content of food. One kilocalorie is equivalent to 1,000 calories, the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius at one atmosphere of pressure.
Definition of Watt-secondA watt-second (Ws) is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to the energy expended by a power of one watt flowing for one second. This unit is often used in physics and engineering to measure small amounts of work or energy.
| Kilocalorie (th) | Watt-second (Ws) |
|---|---|
| 1 kcal | 4184 Ws |
| 2 kcal | 8368 Ws |
| 3 kcal | 12552 Ws |
| 4 kcal | 16736 Ws |
| 5 kcal | 20920 Ws |
| 6 kcal | 25104 Ws |
| 7 kcal | 29288 Ws |
| 8 kcal | 33472 Ws |
| 9 kcal | 37656 Ws |
| 10 kcal | 41840 Ws |
1 kcal = 4184 Ws
1 Ws = 0.000239006 kcal
Example 1:
Convert 5 kcal to Ws:
5 kcal = 5 × 4184 Ws = 20920 Ws
Example 2:
Convert 2.5 kcal to Ws:
2.5 kcal = 2.5 × 4184 Ws = 10460 Ws
The Kilocalorie th to Watt-second Converter is a tool that has its roots in the need to bridge the gap between different energy measurement systems. It allows users to convert nutritional energy values into more universally used electrical energy units, aiding in various calculations and engineering applications.
Explore the real-world utility of the Kilocalorie th to Watt-second Converter, an essential tool for professionals in various fields.
Example 1:
To convert 10 kilocalories to watt-seconds:
10 kcal = 10 × 4184 Ws = 41840 Ws
Example 2:
To convert 15 kilocalories to watt-seconds:
15 kcal = 15 × 4184 Ws = 62760 Ws
