What are Megaelectron-volt and Kilowatt-hour

A Megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy commonly used in particle physics. It represents one million electron volts, a measure of the amount of energy gained or lost by an electron as it moves through an electric potential difference of one volt. This unit is particularly useful in high-energy physics, where it describes the kinetic energy of particles accelerated by electric fields.

A Kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy measurement that represents the amount of energy consumed if a device with a power of one kilowatt operates for one hour. It's a standard unit of energy used by electricity companies for billing purposes, reflecting the total energy usage over time by electrical devices in homes and businesses.
