Ohms to Megaohms Converter
Ohms to Megaohms Conversion
Converting ohms (Ω) to megaohms (MΩ) is a simple unit conversion. One megaohm equals 1,000,000 ohms, so you divide the number of ohms by 1,000,000 to get megaohms. For more information on electrical resistance, you can refer to the Wikipedia page on Ohm.
Ohms to Megaohms Calculation
The resistance (R) in Megaohms can be calculated from Ohms using the following formula:
R(MΩ) = R(Ω) / 1,000,000
Where:
- R(MΩ) Resistance in Megaohms (MΩ)
- R(Ω) Resistance in Ohms (Ω)
- 1,000,000 Conversion factor from Ohms to Megaohms
Key Point: The division by 1,000,000 is necessary to convert Ohms to Megaohms.
Practical Examples
Example 1
Given:
- Resistance = 5,000,000 Ω
Calculation:
R(MΩ) = 5,000,000 Ω / 1,000,000 = 5 MΩImportant Note: Always round calculations to two decimal places for practical applications. In real-world scenarios, consider safety factors and local electrical codes when sizing components.
