What are Calorie and Volt

Definition of Calorie

A calorie is a unit of energy that is commonly used to measure the amount of energy food provides when consumed by a living organism. Traditionally, the calorie was defined in terms of heating, as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. In scientific contexts, this is often referred to as the 'small calorie' or 'gram calorie.' It is a metric unit of energy, although the joule has largely replaced it in scientific settings. Despite this, the calorie remains widely recognized in the context of nutrition and diet.

Definition of Volt

A volt is the derived unit for electric potential, electromotive force, and potential difference in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta, who invented the voltaic pile, considered the first chemical battery. One volt is defined as the potential difference that will drive one ampere of current against one ohm of resistance. In practical terms, volts measure the potential energy per unit charge, and they are fundamental to understanding electricity's ability to perform work. Volts are crucial in determining how much energy a circuit can transport.
