1 E4 J

To help compare different orders of magnitude we list here energies between 10,000 joules and 100,000 joules.

Weaker energies
1.36 × 10⁴ J -- energy received from the Sun at the Earth's orbit by one square metre in one second
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 gasoline
60,000 J -- a power of one kilowatt applied for one minute
