    For a fuel of composition C c H h O o N n, the (higher) heat of combustion is 419 kJ/mol × (c + 0.3 h − 0.5 o) usually to a good approximation (±3%), [2] [3] though it gives poor results for some compounds such as (gaseous) formaldehyde and carbon monoxide, and can be significantly off if o + n > c, such as for glycerine dinitrate, C 3 H 6 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT_equivalent

    TNT equivalent is a convention for expressing energy, typically used to describe the energy released in an explosion.The ton of TNT is a unit of energy defined by convention to be 4.184 gigajoules (1 gigacalorie), [1] which is the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) of TNT.

    The contribution of the muscle to the specific heat of the body is approximately 47%, and the contribution of the fat and skin is approximately 24%. The specific heat of tissues range from ~0.7 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for tooth (enamel) to 4.2 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for eye (sclera). [13]

  7. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    As of October 2013, the retail cost of propane was approximately $2.37 per gallon, or roughly $25.95 per 1 million BTUs. [58] This means that filling a 500-gallon propane tank, which is what households that use propane as their main source of energy usually require, cost $948 (80% of 500 gallons or 400 gallons), a 7.5% increase on the 2012 ...

    The kinetic energy of a 2 kg mass travelling at 1 m/s, or a 1 kg mass travelling at 1.41 m/s. The energy required to lift an apple up 1 m, assuming the apple has a mass of 101.97 g. The heat required to raise the temperature of 0.239 g of water from 0 °C to 1 °C. [15] The kinetic energy of a 50 kg human moving very slowly (0.2 m/s or 0.72 km/h).

    1 ⁠ cal / °C⋅g ⁠ = 1 ⁠ Cal / °C⋅kg ⁠ = 1 ⁠ kcal / °C⋅kg ⁠ = 4184 ⁠ J / kg⋅K ⁠ [20] = 4.184 ⁠ kJ / kg⋅K ⁠. Note that while cal is 1 ⁄ 1000 of a Cal or kcal, it is also per gram instead of kilo gram : ergo, in either unit, the specific heat capacity of water is approximately 1.
