What are Megawatt-hour and Pound-force inch

Definition of Megawatt-hour

A Megawatt-hour (MWh) is a unit of energy measurement equivalent to one megawatt (1 MW) of power expended for one hour (1 h) of time. It is a standard unit of energy within the electric power industry, and its broad usage also extends to the fields of natural gas and heating/cooling energy production. One MWh equals one million watt-hours or 3.6 billion joules.

Definition of Pound-force inch

The Pound-force inch (lbf·in) is a unit of torque, representing the rotational force applied when a pound-force (lbf) is exerted at a distance of one inch from the pivot point. It's extensively used in engineering, automotive, and mechanical industries to quantify the twisting moment applied to objects such as bolts or flywheels, indicating how much force is exerted at a radial distance.
