Measurements
( .
= )*+ = )*+ works for both energy and power. Out meaning useful out.
(,- .,-
() = () + 273 temperature conversions
= (1.610ABC ) convert energy from joules to eV

Mechanics
F + ( = 0 conservation of energy
( + F = GHGIJ energy in a system
LM
= power in terms of work over time
LG

Thermal
P
O = is universal gas constant, O is Stefan-Boltzmanns constant, U is Avogadros.
QR
V
total internal energy of all molecules in 1 mole of ideal gas. T is temp, R is gas const.
W

Waves
(
= intensity at distance r from source with power P
