What are Watt and Joule

A Watt is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) that measures the rate of energy transfer. Defined as one joule per second, it quantifies how much energy is being used or produced in a given time. Named after James Watt, the inventor who improved the steam engine, the watt symbolizes the power output of engines, the consumption of electricity, and the rate of energy conversion in various systems. It is a crucial measurement in both mechanical and electrical contexts, providing a universal standard to evaluate energy efficiency and usage.

A joule is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the amount of energy transferred when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. Named after the physicist James Prescott Joule, this unit measures various forms of energy, including mechanical work, heat, and electricity. In practical terms, one joule is the energy required to lift a small apple one meter against Earth's gravity. It serves as a fundamental measure in physics, enabling the quantification and comparison of energy in different processes and systems.
