Common multiples are in adventurous face
Nanojoule[edit]
The nanojoule (nJ) is according to one billionth (10-9) of one joule. One nanojoule is about 1/160 of the active activity of a aerial mosquito.[9]
Microjoule[edit]
The microjoule (ОјJ) is according to one millionth (10-6) of one joule. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is accepted to aftermath collisions on the adjustment of 1 microjoule (7 TeV) per particle.
Millijoule[edit]
The millijoule (mJ) is according to one thousandth (10-3) of a joule.
Kilojoule[edit]
The kilojoule (kJ) is according to one thousand (103) joules. Nutritional aliment labels in assertive countries accurate activity in kilojoules (kJ).
One kilojoule per additional (1 kilowatt) is about the bulk of solar radiation accustomed by one aboveboard accent of the Earth in abounding daylight.[10]
Megajoule[edit]
The megajoule (MJ) is according to one actor (106) joules, or about the active activity of a one-tonne car affective at 160 km/h (100 mph).
Because 1 watt times 1 additional equals 1 joule, 1 kilowatt-hour is 1000 watts times 3600 seconds, or 3.6 megajoules.
Gigajoule[edit]
The gigajoule (GJ) is according to one billion (109) joules. 6 GJ is about the bulk of abeyant actinic activity in a butt of oil, if combusted.[11]
Terajoule[edit]
The terajoule (TJ) is according to one abundance (1012) joules. About 63 TJ of activity was appear by the diminutive bomb that exploded over Hiroshima.[12] The International Space Station, with a accumulation of about 450,000 kg and alternate acceleration of 7.7 km/s,[13] has a active activity of almost 13 TJ.
Petajoule[edit]
The petajoule (PJ) is according to one quadrillion (1015) joules. 210 PJ is agnate to about 50 megatons of TNT. This is the bulk of activity appear by the Tsar Bomba, the better counterfeit nuclear access ever.
Exajoule[edit]
The exajoule (EJ) is according to one quintillion (1018) joules. The 2011 TЕЌhoku convulsion and tsunami in Japan had 1.41 EJ of activity according to its 9.0 on the moment consequence scale. Activity in the United States acclimated per year is almost 94 EJ.
Zettajoule[edit]
The zettajoule (ZJ) is according to one sextillion (1021) joules. Annual all-around activity burning is about 0.5 ZJ.
Yottajoule[edit]
The yottajoule (YJ) is according to one septillion (1024) joules. This is about the bulk of activity appropriate to calefaction the absolute aggregate of baptize on Earth by 1 В°C. The thermal achievement of the Sun is about 400 YJ per second.
