Example sentencesExamples - One calorie of heat is equivalent to 4.2 joules of work.
- And a joule is indeed a sensible sort of unit in everyday life - a 60-watt lightbulb radiates 60 joules of energy every second.
- They reckon it would release two billion joules of energy.
- One joule of output energy will energise approximately 6 miles of wire with no interference.
- The unit of absorbed dose is call the gray, which is the amount of energy in joules from the radiation absorbed per kilogram of the absorbing material.
Origin Late 19th century: named after J. P. Joule (see Joule, James Prescott).
