kilojoule [kJ]
Definition: A kilojoule is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 joules.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system.
CurrentUse: It is commonly used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One kilojoule is approximately the energy required to lift a small apple 100 meters.
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.

How to Convert kilojoule to joule
1 kilojoule [kJ] = 1000 joule [J]
1 joule [J] = 0.001 kilojoule [kJ]
we use cross multiplication method
kilojoule [kJ] → joule [J]
1 → 1000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500
