Discover the simplicity of converting kiloelectron-volts to millijoules with our precise tool. Get curious about the seamless energy unit conversion offered by Newtum's keV to mJ Converter.
A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 electron-volts. It represents the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by a single electron when it moves across an electric potential difference of one volt. In the field of physics, keV is commonly used to describe energies of particles or photons in the realm of atomic and nuclear processes.
Definition of MillijouleA millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to one-thousandth of a joule. It is a relatively small unit of energy often used in the contexts of physics, chemistry, and biology to describe minute amounts of energy released or absorbed in various processes, such as chemical reactions or particle collisions.
| Kiloelectron-volt (keV) | Millijoule (mJ) |
|---|---|
| 1 keV | 0.1602 mJ |
| 10 keV | 1.602 mJ |
| 100 keV | 16.02 mJ |
| 500 keV | 80.1 mJ |
| 1,000 keV | 160.2 mJ |
| 5,000 keV | 801 mJ |
| 10,000 keV | 1,602 mJ |
| 50,000 keV | 8,010 mJ |
| 100,000 keV | 16,020 mJ |
| 1,000,000 keV | 160,200 mJ |
Example 1:
Convert 1 keV to mJ:
1 keV = 1 × 0.1602 mJ = 0.1602 mJ
Example 2:
Convert 10 keV to mJ:
10 keV = 10 × 0.1602 mJ = 1.602 mJ
The Kiloelectron-volt to Millijoule Converter has its origins in the scientific need to bridge the gap between quantum scale energy measurements and more tangible energy units. It facilitates the conversion between the energy scales used in subatomic particle physics and those applicable to broader scientific and engineering contexts.
