About Kilowatt-Hours
A kilowatt-hour (kWh) is the energy consumed by 1 kW for one hour - exactly 3,600,000 J = 3.6 MJ. All domestic electricity meters bill in kWh. Appliance benchmarks: fridge 180-250 kWh/year; washing machine 0.5-2.0 kWh/cycle; air conditioner 1-3 kWh/h. EVs consume 13-25 kWh/100 km; the Lucid Air achieves ~15.9 kWh/100 km (WLTP). Producing 1 tonne of primary aluminium requires ~13,000-15,000 kWh. Global electricity generation is ~29,165 TWh ≈ 2.9 × 10¹³ kWh/year. 1 kWh = 3.6 MJ = 3,412.1 BTU = 859.85 kcal.
About Foot-Pound-Force
A foot-pound-force (ft·lbf) is the work done by one pound-force through one foot - exactly 1.3558179483314004 J. It is the standard torque and energy unit in US engineering. Automotive engine torque: Honda Civic ~125 lb-ft; Ford F-150 EcoBoost ~500 lb-ft. Muzzle energies: .22 LR ~140 ft·lbf; .308 Winchester ~2,600 ft·lbf; .50 BMG ~14,000 ft·lbf. Diesel pile hammers deliver 15,000-600,000 ft·lbf/blow. SAE Grade 8 bolts are specified at 7-950 ft·lbf. 1 ft·lbf = 12 in·lbf = 1.35582 J = 0.32405 cal.
