About these units

Electronvolt (eV)

Definition
An electronvolt (eV) is the energy gained by an electron moving through a one-volt potential, a tiny amount of energy.
History
It became standard in atomic and particle physics in the 20th century.
Current use
Electronvolts measure energies of particles, photons, and chemical bonds.

Foot-Pound (ft·lb)

Definition
A foot-pound (ft·lb) is the work done by a one-pound force acting over one foot, about 1.356 joules.
History
It comes from the imperial system of mechanics.
Current use
Foot-pounds express torque and energy in US engineering and firearms.
