What are Therm and Megaelectron-volt

Definition of Therm

A Therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy used primarily in natural gas industries. It's equivalent to 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTU). The Therm is recognized in the measurement of natural gas in many countries, representing the energy produced by burning one therm of gas. In the United States, the Therm is often used for heating purposes and billing calculations, reflecting the energy content of gas delivered to consumers.

Definition of Megaelectron-volt

A Megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy commonly used in particle physics. It's equivalent to one million electron volts. Given that an electron volt is the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by a single electron accelerating from rest through an electric potential difference of one volt, a MeV represents a significantly larger amount of energy. It is commonly used to describe the energy of particles in accelerators or cosmic rays.
