What are Kilojoule and Poundalfoot

Definition of Kilojoule

A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). One kilojoule is equal to one thousand joules, which is the energy required to move a one-kilogram mass at the speed of one meter per second squared over a distance of one meter. It's a commonly used unit of energy in physics, chemistry, and nutritional calorimetry.

Definition of Poundalfoot

A poundal foot (pdl·ft) is a unit of work or energy in the Foot-Pound-Second (FPS) system, also known as the British Engineering System. It represents the work done by a force of one poundal acting over a distance of one foot. In context, it is the energy transferred when applying a one-poundal force over a linear displacement of one foot.
