Electron Volt To Foot Pound (Ev To Ft?Lb) Converter

The Electron Volt to Foot Pound (eV to ft·lb) Converter is a handy tool designed to help you easily convert energy measurements between these two units. Whether you’re working in physics, engineering, or other scientific fields, understanding how these units relate can be very useful.

An Electron Volt (eV) is a unit of energy commonly used in atomic and particle physics. It is defined as the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by an electron when it moves through an electric potential difference of one volt. Mathematically, 1 eV equals approximately 1.602 × 10^-19 joules.

A Foot Pound (ft·lb) is a unit of work or energy used primarily in the United States. It measures the amount of energy transferred when a force of one pound-force moves an object a distance of one foot in the direction of the force. In SI units, 1 ft·lb is approximately 1.355818 joules.

To convert from electron volts to foot pounds, you can use the following formula:
Energy in ft·lb = (Energy in eV) × 1.602 × 10^-19 J / 1.355818 J

This simplifies to:
Energy in ft·lb ? (Energy in eV) × 1.183 × 10^-19

Using this converter, you just need to input the energy value in electron volts, and it will automatically calculate the equivalent energy in foot pounds for you. It’s a quick and easy way to switch between these units without manual calculations.
