“​One joule is defined as the work done when a force of one Newton is moved through one meter. It can also be defined in terms of electrical energy as one amp moved through one volt of potential difference, or one Watt.

“So, in terms of energy, 4.18 joules is the actual measured amount of energy it takes to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.” - Eric Henderson, Quora

The video owner makes a good point about computer-aided learning. However, when it comes to tutoring, and although I use the internet to prepare for a lesson, it’s only test prep books, a grammar book, a math book, and paper and pencil that we use during the tutoring hour.

Exception: We’ve done a few simple science experiments on the dining room table, covered by a plastic sheet. Everything else, everything that comes not from a book, becomes a galactic distraction!

However, what is the state of my soul? The Gospel for the Twenty-fourth and Last Sunday after Pentecost (11/26/2023) was about the end times. The sermon was about the end of the end times and that I must be vigilant and remain in a state of sanctifying grace.
