British thermal unit to joule converter (btu to j)

Conversion Formula

1 btu = 1.06k j

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 British Thermal Unit = 1.06k joules
   1 Joule = 1.000 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 btu = (1.06k J) / (1.000 J/j) = 1.06k j
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in btu by 1.06k to get the equivalent in j

Example Conversion

Convert 5 btu to j:

5 btu × 1.06k = 5.28k j
