Convert 10 Calorie/Second (cal/s) to Joule/Second (J/s).

10 Calorie/Second equals 41.84 Joule/Second. Multiply 10 by 4.184.

10 Calorie/Second = 41.84 Joule/Second

Worked example: converting Calorie/Second to Joule/Second

Step 1 — start with the formula. J/s = cal/s × 4.184
Step 2 — substitute your figure. 10 cal/s × 4.184
Step 3 — read the result. 10 cal/s = 41.84 J/s
Step 4 — check it in reverse. cal/s = J/s × 0.2390057361 returns 10 cal/s, which matches the figure you started with.
