What are Megajoule and Ton

Definition of Megajoule

A Megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy equivalent to one million joules. It's a standard unit within the International System of Units (SI). Often used to quantify large-scale energy amounts, the Megajoule is key in fields like physics, engineering, and energy industries to measure work or heat output.

Definition of Ton

A ton of explosives is a unit of energy commonly used to describe the energy released by an explosion. One ton of TNT is equivalent to the energy released by detonating one ton of trinitrotoluene (TNT) and represents a substantial amount of energy, commonly measured in gigajoules.
