Rydberg to megaelectronvolt converter (ry to mev)

Conversion Formula

1 ry = 1.36e-5 mev

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Rydberg = 2.18e-18 joules
   1 Megaelectronvolt = 1.60e-13 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 ry = (2.18e-18 J) / (1.60e-13 J/mev) = 1.36e-5 mev
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in ry by 1.36e-5 to get the equivalent in mev

Example Conversion

Convert 5 ry to mev:

5 ry × 1.36e-5 = 6.80e-5 mev
