The Wortham unit was a unit of measurement of strength of a force field or tractor beam. In 2267, when the USS Enterprise first monitored the power source of Vaal, the source was generating alternating cycles totaling one hundred to the twentieth power Wortham units. This was the total amount of energy Vaal was expending against the Federation starship. (TOS: "The Apple" )

  • A Wortham unit was a unit of measurement of energy. In 2267, Montgomery Scott reported that the power generated by Vaal totalled 100 to the 20th power Wortham units. (TOS episode: "The Apple") In 2269, Pavel Chekov, while in high-gravity conditions, "put the last Wortham unit of energy he had" into altering the Queen Mary's gravity, thus incapacitating Krulmadden and his crew.
