joule to kilocalorie (th)
Please provide values below to convert joule [J] to kilocalorie (th) [kcal (th)], or change ↔.
joule [J]
Definition: The joule is the base unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the work done when a force of one newton moves an object one meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One joule is approximately the energy required to lift a small apple one meter.
kilocalorie (th) [kcal (th)]
Definition: A kilocalorie (th) is a unit of energy equal to 4.184 kilojoules.
Historyandorigin: It is based on the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
CurrentUse: It is used to measure the energy content of food.
funfact: One kilocalorie (th) is equivalent to 1,000 small calories.

How to Convert joule to kilocalorie (th)
1 joule [J] = 0.0002390057 kilocalorie (th) [kcal (th)]
1 kilocalorie (th) [kcal (th)] = 4184 joule [J]
we use cross multiplication method
joule [J] → kilocalorie (th) [kcal (th)]
1 → 0.0002390057
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0002390057=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0003585086
