Therms (US)
Definition
A therm is an imperial unit of heat energy equal to 100,000 BTU or approximately 105,506,000 joules. It is used primarily for natural gas billing.
History
The therm was defined by the UK Gas Act of 1920 for standardizing natural gas billing. It provided a convenient large-scale unit for measuring gas consumption across households and businesses.
Current use
Therms are used by natural gas utilities in the United States and the United Kingdom for billing residential and commercial customers. Gas bills typically show consumption in therms.
Electronvolts (eV)
Definition
An electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy equal to the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron when accelerated through an electric potential difference of one volt. It equals approximately 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ joules.
History
The electronvolt emerged in the early 20th century with the development of particle physics and quantum mechanics. It provided a practical unit for describing atomic and subatomic energy scales.
Current use
Electronvolts are the standard unit in particle physics, nuclear physics, semiconductor physics, and quantum chemistry for expressing binding energies, photon energies, and particle masses.
