Q.

‘Therm' is the unit of –

A. Power
B. Heat
C. Light
D. Distance
Answer» B. Heat
Explanation: Therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy equal to 100,000 British thermal units (BTU). It is approximately the enemy equivalent of burning 100 cubic feet (often referred to as 1 CCF) of natural gas. Since (Natural Gas) meters measure volume and not energy content, a therm factor is used by (Natural) gas companies to convert the volume of gas used to its heat equivalent, and thus calculate the actual energy use.
