I think it may vary depending on the burn center and the needs. I used to work at a burn center before I started medical school. Both attendings were general surgeons with fellowships in burn-trauma, one of them also had a second fellowship in critical care. Nov 1, 2004. #5.
Joules can also be converted from calories, as calories are another unit of energy. There are 4.19 joules in every calorie. You can calculate joules by calculating the kinetic energy, or energy of motion, of an object.You can also calculate the joules by calculating the amount of work accomplished by a person or machine. Lastly, you can calculate joules by converting directly from a measurement in calories.n science, the joule is the unit of energy or work. It is a compound unit defined as 1 newton of force over a distance of 1 meter, or as the kinetic energy of a 1 kilogram mass moving at one meter per second.
Increasing the speed of an object does not affect_ its potential energy. The SI unit for energy is the _joule_. You can calculate kinetic energy by using the equation _KE = 1.2 m x v2_. You can calculate gravitational potential energy by using the equation _GPE = m x g (9.8 m/s2) x h_.A bus engine transfers chemical potential energy into _Kinetic energy_ so that the bus moves.According to the law of conservation of energy, the total amount of energy in the universe _remains constant_.ncreasing the speed of an object does not affect_ its potential energy. The SI unit for energy is the _joule_. You can calculate kinetic energy by using the equation _KE = 1.2 m x v2_. You can calculate gravitational potential energy by using the equation _GPE = m x g (9.8 m/s2) x h_.
