If a comet with this speed fell to the Earth it would gain another 63 MJ/kg, yielding a total of 2655 MJ/kg with a speed of 72.9 km/s. Since the equator is moving at about 0.5 km/s, the impact speed has an upper limit of 73.4 km/s, giving an upper limit for the specific energy of a comet hitting the Earth of about 2690 MJ/kg.
The following unit conversions may be helpful when considering the data in the tables: 3.6 MJ = 1 kW⋅h ≈ 1.34 hp⋅h. Since 1 J = 10 −6 MJ and 1 m 3 = 10 3 L, divide joule/m 3 by 10 9 to get MJ/L = GJ/m 3. Divide MJ/L by 3.6 to get kW⋅h/L.
The watt, kilogram, joule, and the second are part of the International System of Units (SI). The hour is not, though it is accepted for use with the SI.Since a watt equals one joule per second and because one hour equals 3600 seconds, one watt-hour per kilogram can be expressed in SI units as 3600 joules per kilogram.
The notation kW/h for the kilowatt-hour is incorrect, as it denotes kilowatt per hour. The hour is a unit of time listed among the non-SI units accepted by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures for use with the SI. [6] An electric heater consuming 1,000 watts (1 kilowatt) operating for one hour uses one kilowatt-hour 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 ...
