What are Btu and Volt

Definition of Btu

The British Thermal Unit (Btu) is a measure of heat energy widely used in the United States. It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. This unit of energy is commonly used in heating and air conditioning systems, reflecting how much energy these systems use or produce. Understanding Btu is crucial for energy management and efficiency, making it a standard unit in many industrial and domestic applications.

Definition of Volt

The volt, symbolized as V, is the derived unit for electric potential, electric potential difference, and electromotive force in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta. One volt is defined as the potential difference that will move one ampere of current against one ohm of resistance. This unit is fundamental in the field of electronics and electrical engineering, providing a measure of the electrical force that drives current through a circuit.
