2000 joules in kilocalorie

NiftyRecipe converts 2000 joules to 0.478011 kilocalorie with a fixed SI-linked factor.

Kilojoules and megajoules describe energy on a scientific scale. The ratio applied here is 1 joule = 0.000239 kilocalorie, so this amount is 0.478011 kilocalorie. Reverse check: 1 kilocalorie ≈ 4184 joule. That helps when a lab notebook or spreadsheet only lists one column.
