What is Joules?

Joules measures energy. It is part of SI units system. Symbol for inches is JJ.

A Joule is commonly defined as amount of work done when a force of 1 newton displaces a mass through a distance of 1 metre in the direction of the force applied.

1 J=1 kgm2/s2=1 Nm1\ J = 1\ kg*m^2/s^{2} = 1\ N*m

1 J=1 Pam3=1 Ws=1 CV1\ J = 1\ Pa*m^3 = 1\ W*s = 1\ C*V

Where JJ - joule
kgkg - kilogram
mm - metre
ss - second
NN - newton
PaPa - pascal
WW - watt
CC - coulomb
VV - volt
