Btu (It)

The Btu (IT) is a unit of energy used to measure the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit, based on the International Table (IT) standards.

History/Origin

The Btu (IT) originated from the British thermal unit, adapted for international standards to provide a consistent measurement of heat energy, particularly in engineering and thermodynamics contexts.

Current Use

The Btu (IT) is primarily used in the energy industry, including heating, cooling, and power generation, to quantify energy content and efficiency in systems adhering to international standards.


Megaelectron-Volt

A megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy equal to one million electron-volts, commonly used in nuclear and particle physics to express the energy of particles.

History/Origin

The megaelectron-volt was introduced as a convenient unit for expressing high-energy particles in physics, particularly after the development of particle accelerators in the mid-20th century, replacing the electron-volt for larger energy scales.

Current Use

Today, the MeV is widely used in nuclear physics, particle physics, and astrophysics to quantify the energy of subatomic particles, nuclear reactions, and cosmic phenomena.
