Title: Need to convert MeV to joules
Post by: Corvettaholic on April 26, 2005, 01:38:12 PM

Mitch,

Remember that formula you wrote down for me? Well it somehow got lost on the plane ride back after beer exploded in my duffle bag. Could you post that again?

1 eV = 1.602 176 53 (14) × 10?19* Joules

1 MeV = 1,000,000 eV

*This number is a negative exponent
