Millijoule
A millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy equal to one thousandth of a joule, where 1 joule equals 1 newton meter or 1 kg·m²/s².
History/Origin
The millijoule is derived from the SI base unit joule, with the prefix 'milli' indicating a factor of 10⁻³. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure small amounts of energy, especially in fields like electronics and biomechanics.
Current Use
The millijoule is commonly used today to quantify small energy quantities in electronics, biomedical applications, and energy measurements where precision at a small scale is required.
Hartree Energy
The Hartree energy (Eh) is a unit of energy used in atomic physics, representing the total energy of an electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state.
History/Origin
Named after the American physicist Douglas Hartree, the Hartree energy was introduced in the early 20th century as a fundamental atomic unit of energy within the system of atomic units, facilitating calculations in quantum mechanics.
Current Use
The Hartree energy is primarily used in theoretical and computational chemistry and physics to express energies at the atomic and molecular scale, especially in quantum chemistry calculations and atomic physics research.
