Inch-Ounce
The inch-ounce (in*ozf) is a unit of energy or work, representing the work done when a force of one ounce-force is applied over a distance of one inch.
History/Origin
The inch-ounce originated in the imperial and customary measurement systems, primarily used in the United States for small-scale energy calculations and engineering applications, before being largely replaced by the foot-pound in most contexts.
Current Use
Today, the inch-ounce is rarely used and has been largely superseded by more standard units like the foot-pound. It may still appear in niche engineering, calibration, or historical references within the energy converter category.
Megawatt-Hour
A megawatt-hour (MW·h) is a unit of energy equal to one megawatt of power sustained for one hour.
History/Origin
The megawatt-hour has been used since the development of large-scale electrical power systems to quantify energy production and consumption, especially in power generation and grid management, becoming standard in the 20th century.
Current Use
It is commonly used today to measure electricity generation, consumption, and capacity in power plants, utilities, and energy markets worldwide.
