  4. Units of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_energy

    Energy is defined via work, so the SI unit of energy is the same as the unit of work – the joule (J), named in honour of James Prescott Joule [1] and his experiments on the mechanical equivalent of heat. In slightly more fundamental terms, 1 joule is equal to 1 newton metre and, in terms of SI base units

    The lumerg is a unit of luminous energy equal to 10 −7 lumen-seconds (100 nlm s). The talbot (T) is a unit of luminous energy equal to one lumen-second (1 lm⋅s). The einstein (E) has two conflicting definitions. The original is a unit of energy, equal to the energy in one mole (1 mol) of photons.

    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.
