joule to gigajoule
Please provide values below to convert joule [J] to gigajoule [GJ], or change ↔.
joule [J]
Definition: The joule is the base unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the work done when a force of one newton moves an object one meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One joule is approximately the energy required to lift a small apple one meter.
gigajoule [GJ]
Definition: A gigajoule is a unit of energy equal to 1 billion joules.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system.
CurrentUse: It is used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One gigajoule is equivalent to 1,000 megajoules.

How to Convert joule to gigajoule
1 joule [J] = 9.999999999E-10 gigajoule [GJ]
1 gigajoule [GJ] = 1000000000 joule [J]
we use cross multiplication method
joule [J] → gigajoule [GJ]
1 → 9.999999999E-10
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*9.999999999E-10=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-9
