Therm
A therm is a unit of energy used primarily to measure natural gas consumption, equivalent to 100,000 British thermal units (BTUs).
History/Origin
The therm was introduced in the early 20th century by the American Gas Association to standardize natural gas billing and measurement; it became widely adopted in North America for energy calculations.
Current Use
Today, the therm is still used in the natural gas industry for billing and energy measurement, although other units like gigajoules and cubic meters are also common globally.
Calorie (Nutritional)
A calorie (Cal) is a unit of energy used to measure the amount of energy provided by food and beverages, specifically representing the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
History/Origin
The calorie was first introduced in the 19th century as a unit to quantify energy in nutrition. It has since become a standard measure in dietary and nutritional contexts, although the scientific community often prefers the joule as the SI unit of energy.
Current Use
Calories are widely used in nutrition to quantify the energy content of food and beverages, helping consumers manage dietary intake and energy balance. The term 'Calorie' with a capital 'C' typically refers to kilocalories (kcal), which are equivalent to 1,000 small calories.
