Convert Megaelectron-volt to Joule
Megaelectron-volt
The megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy equal to one million electron-volts. It is commonly used in particle physics and nuclear physics to measure the energy of particles.
The megaelectron-volt is derived from the electron-volt, which is the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by an electron when it is accelerated through an electric potential difference of one volt.
Joule
The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy, work, and heat, defined as the amount of energy transferred when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. It is mathematically expressed as 1 J = 1 N·m = 1 kg·m²/s², where N is newton, kg is kilogram, m is meter, and s is second. The joule is commonly used to measure energy in various forms, including mechanical, electrical, and thermal energy.
The joule is named after James Prescott Joule, an English physicist who is best known for his work on the relationship between heat and mechanical work. His experiments in the 19th century demonstrated that mechanical energy could be converted into heat, contributing to the formulation of the law of conservation of energy. His work laid the foundation for modern thermodynamics, highlighting that energy is conserved and can be transformed but not created or destroyed.
