What is the difference between joule and energy?
joule | energy |
In the International System of Units, the derived unit of energy, work and heat; the work required to exert a force of one newton for a distance of one metre. Also equal to the energy of one watt of power for a duration of one second. Symbol: J
The impetus behind all motion and all activity.

(lb) A quantity that denotes the ability to do work and is measured in a unit dimensioned in mass × distance²/time² (ML²/T²) or the equivalent.
:Units:
::SI: joule (J), kilowatt-hour (kW·h)
::CGS: erg (erg)
::Customary: foot-pound-force, calorie, kilocalorie (i.e. dietary calories), BTU, liter-atmosphere, ton of TNT
(lb) An intangible, modifiable force (often characterized as either 'positive' or 'negative') believed to emanate from a person, place or thing and which is (or can be) preserved and transferred in human interactions; shared mood or group habit; a vibe, a feeling, an impression.
*2004 , Phylameana L. Desy, The Everything Reiki Book , Body, Mind & Spirit,
*:Reiki, much like prayer, is a personal exercise that can easily convert negative energy' into positive ' energy .
*2009 , Christopher Johns, Becoming a Reflective Practitioner , John Wiley & Sons,
*:Negative feelings can be worked through and their energy' converted into positive '''energy'''. In crisis, normal patterns of self-organization fail, resulting in anxiety (negative '''energy'''). Being open systems, people can exchange this '''energy''' with the environment and create positive ' energy for taking action based on a reorganisation of self as necessary to resolve the crisis and emerge at a higher level of consciousness; that is, until the next crisis.
*2011 , Anne Jones, Healing Negative Energies , Hachette,
*:If you have been badly affected by negative energy' a salt bath is wonderful for clearing and cleansing yourself. Salt attracts negative ' energy and will draw it away from you.

(wikipedia joule)Noun
(en noun)- The Greisen–Zatsepin–Kuzmin limit (GZK limit) is a theoretical upper limit on the energy of cosmic rays (high energy charged particles from space) coming from "distant" sources. The limit is 5×1019 eV, or about 8 joules'''. The limit is set by slowing-interactions of cosmic ray protons with the microwave background radiation over long distances (~163 million light-years). The limit is at the same order of magnitude as the upper limit for energy at which cosmic rays have experimentally been detected. For example, one ultra-high-energy cosmic ray has been detected which appeared to possess a record 50 '''joules (312 million TeV) of energy (about the same as a 60 mph baseball).
