Megaelectronvolts (MeV)
Definition
A megaelectronvolt (MeV) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000,000 electronvolts, or approximately 1.602 × 10⁻¹³ joules.
History
The MeV became essential with the development of nuclear physics and particle accelerators in the mid-20th century, particularly for describing nuclear binding energies and particle collision energies.
Current use
MeV are the standard unit for nuclear reaction energies, gamma-ray spectroscopy, radiation therapy dosimetry, and high-energy particle physics experiments.
Kilowatt-hours (kWh)
Definition
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 watt-hours or 3,600,000 joules. It represents the energy consumed by a 1,000-watt appliance running for one hour.
History
The kilowatt-hour became the standard billing unit for electricity with the widespread electrification of homes and businesses in the early 20th century. Power utilities worldwide adopted it for metering.
Current use
Kilowatt-hours are the universal unit for residential and commercial electricity billing. They are also used to measure electric vehicle battery capacity, solar panel output, and grid-level energy storage.
