Kilojoules
A kilojoule (kJ) is equivalent to one thousand joules (J). It is the energy required when a force of one thousand newtons is applied over a distance of one meter, or one newton applied over a kilometer. In reality, a joule is roughly the energy required to lift a small apple one meter against Earth's gravity.
Calories (I.T.)
The Calorie (I.T.) or International Table Calorie is defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere which is approximately 4.1868 joules.
