lumen/square meter to meter-candle
Please provide values below to convert lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] to meter-candle [m*c], or change ↔.
lumen/square meter [lm/m^2]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, representing the amount of luminous flux (in lumens) spread over an area of one square meter.
Historyandorigin: Lumen per square meter is used in photometry to describe how much light falls on a surface.
CurrentUse: It is equivalent to the unit lux and is used worldwide for measuring light intensity in various settings like homes, offices, and street lighting.
funfact: Lumen per square meter (lux) is a standard way to measure lighting levels in buildings and public spaces.
meter-candle [m*c]
Definition: A historical unit of illuminance, measuring the light falling on one square meter from a source of one candle power at a distance of one meter.
Historyandorigin: The meter-candle was used in early photometric measurements before the SI units, such as lux, became more standardized.
CurrentUse: It is no longer in use, having been replaced by the lux in modern systems of measurement.
funfact: The meter-candle was an important step in the development of modern photometric units and was part of the transition to more accurate and practical measurement systems.

How to Convert lumen/square meter to meter-candle
1 lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] = 1 meter-candle [m*c]
1 meter-candle [m*c] = 1 lumen/square meter [lm/m^2]
we use cross multiplication method
lumen/square meter [lm/m^2] → meter-candle [m*c]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
