Common metric units are Joule J Kilogram kg . It is an intensive property . Contrast this with energy , which is an extensive property . There are two main types of specific energy potential energy and specific kinetic energy . Others are the gray unit gray and sievert , measures for the absorption of radiation. The concept of specific energy applies to a particular or theoretical way of extracting useful energy from the material considered that is usually implied by context. Thermodynamic properties related to specific energy include specific internal energy , specific enthalpy , specific Gibbs free energy , and specific Helmholtz free energy , all of which use units of energy per mass such as J kg. These intensive properties are each symbolized by using the lower ... meaning enthalpy per mole. These intensive quantities will use units of energy per mole, such as J ..., the useful energy available by extraction from an energy store is always less than the energy put into the energy store, as explained by the laws of thermodynamics . Energy density of foodEnergy density is the amount of energy per mass or volume of food. The energy density of a food can be determined from the label by dividing the energy per serving usually in kilojoule s or calorie s by the serving size usually in grams, or ounces? milliliters or fluid ounces . Energy density is thus expressed ... , food calorie or Calorie with a capital C . This is equivalent to a thousand gram calories abbreviated cal or one kilocalorie kcal .

bar File Hooah.jpg right thumb A HOOAH Bar HOOAH energy bar provided by the United States Army in its MRE s Energy bars are supplemental bars containing cereal s and other high energy foods targeted at people that require quick energy but do not have time for a meal. They are different from energy drink s, which contain caffeine , whereas bars provide foodenergy . It is widely recognised that individuals should seek out low glycemic products that have a slow release of energy over a longer period of time. Truly effective energy bars need to provide fast acting carbohydrates to facilitate ultra quick energy delivery. They also need a generous glycemic content to help ensure that a body is properly fuelled when it needs it most. The purpose of a energy bar is to remedy fatigue and improve concentration at vital times. History Unreferenced section date March 2011 The first energy bar in the American marketplace was Space Food Sticks which Pillsbury Company created in the late 1960s to capitalize on the popularity of the space program. Space Food Sticks were developed by Robert Muller, the inventor of the HACCP standards used by the food industry to ensure food safety. They are currently being made by Retrofuture Products in Port Washington, New York.
