phot to lux
Please provide values below to convert phot [ph] to lux [lx], or change ↔.
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CurrentUse: It has mostly been replaced by the lux and is no longer widely used, except in some specialized contexts.
funfact: The phot is still occasionally used in older scientific research but has been largely superseded by the SI unit, lux.
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 phot to lux
1 phot [ph] = 10000 lux [lx]
1 lux [lx] = 0.0001 phot [ph]
we use cross multiplication method
phot [ph] → lux [lx]
1 → 10000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*10000=1*x
by simplifying
x=15000
