How to Convert Volts to Megavolts
To convert volts to megavolts, you divide the number of volts by 1,000,000 (since 1 megavolt equals 1 million volts).
Formula
MV = V รท 1,000,000
MV = Voltage in megavolts
V = Voltage in volts
Quick Trick: 1 Megavolt = 1,000,000 Volts!
Example
Starting Point:
- ๐ We measured: 2,500,000 Volts
Solution Steps:
1๏ธโฃ Take our formula: MV = V รท 1,000,000
2๏ธโฃ Put in 2,500,000 Volts
3๏ธโฃ MV = 2,500,000 รท 1,000,000
๐ Answer: 2.5 MV
What Do These Terms Really Mean?
Megavolt (MV) - A Large Measure of Voltage
A megavolt (MV) is a unit of voltage equivalent to one million volts:
- Commonly used in high-voltage applications
- Essential for power transmission over long distances
Volt (V) - The Basic Unit of Voltage
Volts are a standard unit of electrical potential:
- Used to measure electrical potential difference
- 1 Volt is the potential difference that will move 1 Ampere of current against 1 Ohm of resistance
