What are Calorie and Exajoule

Definition of Calorie

A Calorie, often depicted as the unit of energy, primarily refers to the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. In the context of nutrition, the term Calorie is used to denote a kilocalorie, equating to 1,000 small calories. It measures the energy-producing potential of food and drink, serving as a critical indicator for dietary energy intake. Originating from the Latin word 'calor', meaning heat, the Calorie has become integral in several scientific fields, including physics, chemistry, and nutrition, to quantify energy content and expenditure.

Definition of Exajoule

An Exajoule is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to 10^18 joules. It is used to express substantial quantities of energy on a global or national scale, such as annual energy consumption or large-scale energy production. Derived from the prefix 'exa', denoting a factor of 10^18, the Exajoule represents an extraordinarily large measurement of energy, making it suitable for applications in astrophysics, high-energy physics, and discussions surrounding global energy policies. As energy demands grow, the Exajoule becomes an increasingly relevant unit for understanding and planning future energy strategies.

Conversion of Calorie to Exajoule

1 cal/h = 1.163 × 10^-17 EJ/s
1 EJ/s = 8.598 × 10^16 cal/h

Example 1:
Convert 500 cal/h to EJ/s:
500 cal/h = 500 × 1.163 × 10^-17 EJ/s = 5.815 × 10^-15 EJ/s

Example 2:
Convert 1000 cal/h to EJ/s:
1000 cal/h = 1000 × 1.163 × 10^-17 EJ/s = 1.163 × 10^-14 EJ/s
