Kilowatt-Hour
A kilowatt-hour (kW·h) is a unit of energy equal to the energy transferred or used when a power of one kilowatt is sustained for one hour.
History/Origin
The kilowatt-hour originated in the late 19th century with the development of electrical power systems, becoming a standard unit for measuring electrical energy consumption and billing.
Current Use
It is widely used today in electricity billing, energy consumption monitoring, and in various engineering and scientific applications to quantify electrical energy usage.
Kilopond Meter
A kilopond meter (kp·m) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one kilopond applied at a distance of one meter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The kilopond meter was used in the past within the metric system to quantify torque, especially in mechanical and engineering contexts, before the adoption of the new SI units. It is based on the kilopond, a gravitational unit of force equivalent to the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity.
Current Use
The kilopond meter is largely obsolete and rarely used today. Torque is now typically measured in newton meters (N·m) within the SI system, which is the standard in scientific and engineering applications.
