What are Watt-second and Megaelectron-volt

Definition of Watt-second

A Watt-second (Ws) is a derived unit of energy equivalent to one joule. It represents the amount of energy expended when one watt of power is used for one second. This unit is commonly used in various scientific and engineering applications to measure energy amounts in a simple and clear manner, providing a direct quantification of energy based on time and power.

Definition of Megaelectron-volt

A Megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy commonly used in the field of particle physics. One MeV is equivalent to one million electron volts, which is the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by a single electron when it is accelerated by an electric field with a potential difference of one volt. This unit is particularly useful in describing the energy levels of particles in accelerators and nuclear reactions.
