Tollner Abstract The universal soil loss equation, A = R*K*L*S*C*P, estimates average annual soil loss A based on rainfall (R), soil factor (K), length factor (L), slope (S), effective cover factor C, and a practice factor P. In teaching the use of the relationship, students can find values of R on

. The symbol m represents mass (in kg) and v is velocity (m/s) so the units of KE are kg*(m/sec)2 or (kg m/sec2)*m = N*m = Joule = J. How much energy is in one joule? A 100-watt lightbulb uses 3.6 x 105 J in one hour (so a joule is pretty small in the grand scale of energy), so we typically work with kJ = 1000 J. Another commonly used unit of energy is the calorie (cal), originally defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1°C but is now defined as 4.184 J (exactly) so a calorie is about
