Convert Volts to Joules



Formula

The formula to convert volts to joules is:

\[ J = V \times C \]

Where:

Can Volts be Converted to Joules?

Volts cannot be directly converted into joules without additional information because volts are a unit of voltage and joules are a unit of energy. To calculate joules from volts, you need the charge of the electricity in coulombs. From there, multiply the charge and volts together to get the energy in joules.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the energy in joules:

\[ J = 12 \times 5 = 60 \text{ joules} \]

The energy is 60 joules.
