Formula

The formula to calculate Kilocalories (kcal) from Joules (J) is:

\[ E (\text{kcal}) = \frac{E (\text{J})}{4184} \]

Where:

Joules to Kilocalories Definition

Joule (J) is a unit of energy, representing the amount of work done when a force of one newton displaces an object by one meter. Kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of energy, representing the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius. The conversion from joules to kilocalories is straightforward: divide the energy in joules by 4184.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ E = \frac{5000}{4184} \]

\[ E = 1.195 \text{ kcal} \]

The Energy (kcal) is 1.195 kcal.
