    4.2×10 6 J: Energy released by explosion of 1 kilogram of TNT [59] [99] 6.1×10 6 J Kinetic energy of the 4 kg tungsten APFSDS penetrator after being fired from a 120mm KE-W A1 cartridge with a nominal muzzle velocity of 1740 m/s. [113] [114] 8.4×10 6 J: Recommended food energy intake per day for a moderately active woman (2000 food calories ...

  4. Energy level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_level

    As separate atoms approach each other to covalently bond, their orbitals affect each other's energy levels to form bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals. The energy level of the bonding orbitals is lower, and the energy level of the antibonding orbitals is higher. For the bond in the molecule to be stable, the covalent bonding electrons ...

  5. Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy

    Energy (from Ancient Greek ἐνέργεια (enérgeia) ' activity ') is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.

  6. Degenerate energy levels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degenerate_energy_levels

    For an N-particle system in three dimensions, a single energy level may correspond to several different wave functions or energy states. These degenerate states at the same level all have an equal probability of being filled. The number of such states gives the degeneracy of a particular energy level. Degenerate states in a quantum system

  7. Level (logarithmic quantity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_(logarithmic_quantity)

    In science and engineering, a power level and a field level (also called a root-power level) are logarithmic magnitudes of certain quantities referenced to a standard reference value of the same type. A power level is a logarithmic quantity used to measure power, power density or sometimes energy, with commonly used unit decibel (dB).

  8. Units of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_energy

    A unit of electrical energy, particularly for utility bills, is the kilowatt-hour (kWh); [3] one kilowatt-hour is equivalent to 3.6 megajoules. Electricity usage is often given in units of kilowatt-hours per year or other periods. [4] This is a measurement of average power consumption, meaning the average rate at which energy is transferred ...

  9. Power of 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_10

    Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. In mathematics, a power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ...
