Kilowatt-hour to joule converter (kwh to j)

Conversion Formula

1 kwh = 3.60M j

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Kilowatt-hour = 3.60M joules
   1 Joule = 1.000 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 kwh = (3.60M J) / (1.000 J/j) = 3.60M j
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in kwh by 3.60M to get the equivalent in j

Example Conversion

Convert 5 kwh to j:

5 kwh × 3.60M = 18.00M j
