To help compare different orders of magnitude we list here energies between 10,000 joules and 100,000 joules.
- Weaker energies
- 1.7 × 104 J, or 4 dietary calories – energy released by metabolism of one gram of sugar or protein
- 36,000 J – 0.01 kWh
- 3.8 × 104 J, or 9 dietary calories – energy released by metabolism of one gram of fat
- 44,742 J – a power of one horsepower applied for one minute
- 5.0 × 104 J – energy released by combustion of one gram of petrol
- 60,000 J – a power of one kilowatt applied for one minute
- Stronger energies
