Kiloelectronvolt to terajoule converter (kev to tj)

Conversion Formula

1 kev = 1.60e-28 tj

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Kiloelectronvolt = 1.60e-16 joules
   1 Terajoule = 1.00T joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 kev = (1.60e-16 J) / (1.00T J/tj) = 1.60e-28 tj
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in kev by 1.60e-28 to get the equivalent in tj

Example Conversion

Convert 5 kev to tj:

5 kev × 1.60e-28 = 8.01e-28 tj
