Uwaga: Wg mnie w PL 'wielkość [czegoś]' jest nadużywanym słowem. Można je pominąć tak w PL i w EN, a sens zostanie.

magnitude


Explanation:
Słownikowo poprawne, ale zdaje się, że właśnie nadmiarowe i w EN rzadziej używane (a pojawiające się w tlum. z PL).

neutral  Andrzej Mierzejewski: "size" to raczej wielkość w sensie wymiarów (dług., szer., głęb.). W stosunku do energii mówi się raczej o ilości. Uwzględniając styl zadawania pytań przez literary, może chodzić o jakiś bezwymiarowy współczynnik.

  -> jak łatwo sprawdzić w dobrym słowniku, słowo "size" ma szersze zastosowane i może również oznaczać "skala" "rozmiar" "wartość", a więc pojęcia wychodzące poza typową wymiarowość; w kontekście energii może jednak rzeczywiście istnieje lepsze rozwiązanie
neutral  LilianNekipelov: Not really.
