Converting from Joule (J) to Quad (quad) | Energy

What is Joule (J)

The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy. It is defined as the work done when a force of one newton acts over a distance of one meter. Joules are commonly used to measure energy in various forms such as mechanical, thermal, and electrical.

What is Quad (quad)

The quad (quad) is a unit of energy equal to 10^15 (a quadrillion) BTU (British Thermal Units). It is commonly used in the energy industry to measure large amounts of energy, particularly in the context of national energy consumption and production.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between joules and quads are as follows:

• To convert from joules (J) to quads (quad):

  1(J)=0.0000000000000000009478171(quad)
  x(quad)=x(J)∗0.0000000000000000009478171

• To convert from quads (quad) to joules (J):

  1(quad)=1055056000000000000(J)
  x(J)=x(quad)∗1055056000000000000

Examples

1. Convert 10 joules to quads:

   • Using the conversion formula: 10(J)=10×0.0000000000000000009478171(quad)=0.00000000000000000009478171(quad)

2. Convert 5 quads to joules:

   • Using the conversion formula: 5(quad)=5×1055056000000000000(J)=5275279000000000000(J)

3. Convert 3 joules to quads:

   • Using the conversion formula: 3(J)=3×0.0000000000000000009478171(quad)=0.000000000000000002843451(quad)

4. Convert 10 quads to joules:

   • Using the conversion formula: 10(quad)=10×1055056000000000000(J)=10550560000000000000(J)

By utilizing these conversion formulas, one can easily convert energy measurements between joules and quads.
