Conversion Formula

1 kcal = 1.00e-9 kttnt

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Kilocalorie = 4.18k joules
   1 Kiloton of TNT = 4.18T joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 kcal = (4.18k J) / (4.18T J/kttnt) = 1.00e-9 kttnt
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in kcal by 1.00e-9 to get the equivalent in kttnt

Example Conversion

Convert 5 kcal to kttnt:
