Understanding Watt-Seconds and Calories
What is a Watt-Second?
A watt-second (Ws) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt of power sustained for one second. It's equal to one joule and is commonly used in electrical and physics calculations. This unit helps measure small amounts of electrical energy usage or conversion.
Understanding Calories
A calorie (cal) is a unit of energy equal to the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. This converter uses the small calorie (cal), not to be confused with the food Calorie (kcal) which is 1000 times larger.
Conversion Formula
To convert watt-seconds to calories, use the following formula:
Calories = Watt-seconds × 0.239006
