Electronvolt to megaelectronvolt converter (ev to mev)

Conversion Formula

1 ev = 1.00e-6 mev

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Electronvolt = 1.60e-19 joules
   1 Megaelectronvolt = 1.60e-13 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 ev = (1.60e-19 J) / (1.60e-13 J/mev) = 1.00e-6 mev
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in ev by 1.00e-6 to get the equivalent in mev

Example Conversion

Convert 5 ev to mev:

5 ev × 1.00e-6 = 5.00e-6 mev
