Please provide values below to convert centimeter-candle [cm*c] to lux [lx], or change ↔.
centimeter-candle [cm*c]
Definition: A historical unit of illuminance, measuring the light falling on one square centimeter from a source of one candle power at a distance of one centimeter.
Historyandorigin: This unit was used in early photometry systems to measure light intensity across small areas, similar to the meter-candle.
CurrentUse: It has been replaced by more standardized units like lux and is no longer commonly used.
funfact: The centimeter-candle was often used in laboratories and early experiments in photometry to measure light intensity over small distances.
lux [lx]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of light that falls on a surface area, equal to one lumen per square meter.
Historyandorigin: The lux is part of the International System of Units (SI) and was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the metric system's development.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in lighting design and to measure the intensity of light across a surface in fields such as architecture, photography, and environmental science.
funfact: Lux is commonly used in everyday life to determine how well-lit a room is, with the recommended illuminance level for general reading being about 300 lux.

How to Convert centimeter-candle to lux
1 centimeter-candle [cm*c] = 10000 lux [lx]
1 lux [lx] = 0.0001 centimeter-candle [cm*c]
we use cross multiplication method
centimeter-candle [cm*c] → lux [lx]
1 → 10000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*10000=1*x
by simplifying
x=15000
