Calorie to kiloton of TNT converter (cal to kttnt)

Conversion Formula

1 cal = 1.00e-12 kttnt

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Calorie = 4.184 joules
   1 Kiloton of TNT = 4.18T joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 cal = (4.184 J) / (4.18T J/kttnt) = 1.00e-12 kttnt
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in cal by 1.00e-12 to get the equivalent in kttnt

Example Conversion

Convert 5 cal to kttnt:

5 cal × 1.00e-12 = 5.00e-12 kttnt
