Megajoule to joule converter (mj to j)

Conversion Formula

1 mj = 0.001000 j

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Megajoule = 0.001000 joules
   1 Joule = 1.000 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 mj = (0.001000 J) / (1.000 J/j) = 0.001000 j
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in mj by 0.001000 to get the equivalent in j

Example Conversion

Convert 5 mj to j:

5 mj × 0.001000 = 0.005000 j
