meter-candle to phot
Please provide values below to convert meter-candle [m*c] to phot [ph], or change ↔.
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CurrentUse: It is no longer in use, having been replaced by the lux in modern systems of measurement.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.
phot [ph]
Definition: A unit of illuminance that measures the amount of light falling on one square centimeter of a surface, equal to one lumen per square centimeter.
Historyandorigin: The phot was introduced in the early 20th century and was used to measure illuminance, especially in scientific studies.
CurrentUse: It has mostly been replaced by the lux and is no longer widely used, except in some specialized contexts.
funfact: The phot is still occasionally used in older scientific research but has been largely superseded by the SI unit, lux.

How to Convert meter-candle to phot
1 meter-candle [m*c] = 0.0001 phot [ph]
1 phot [ph] = 10000 meter-candle [m*c]
we use cross multiplication method
meter-candle [m*c] → phot [ph]
1 → 0.0001
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0001=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.00015
