How to Convert Joules to Giga-electronvolts
A joule is a unit of energy, and a giga-electronvolt (GeV) is a larger unit commonly used in particle physics. To convert joules to giga-electronvolts, you can use the conversion factor: 1 GeV = 6.242 ร 109 J.
Formula
Quick Trick: To convert joules to giga-electronvolts, multiply by 6.242 ร 109!
Let’s Solve One Together
Imagine you have an energy measurement:
- Energy: 1 joule
Here’s how we figure it out:
1. Take our formula: GeV = J ร 6.242 ร 109
2. Put in 1 joule
3. GeV = 1 ร 6.242 ร 109
Answer: 6.242 ร 109 GeV
Definitions of Key Terms
Giga-electronvolt (GeV)
A giga-electronvolt (GeV) is a unit of energy commonly used in particle physics. It is equivalent to one billion electronvolts.
Joule (J)
Joules are a standard unit of energy used to measure energy, work, or heat. One joule is the energy needed to move a force of one newton over one meter.
