lumen/steradian to candle (international)
Please provide values below to convert lumen/steradian [lm/sr] to candle (international) [c], or change ↔.
lumen/steradian [lm/sr]
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity per unit solid angle, representing the amount of luminous flux emitted in a particular direction.
Historyandorigin: Lumen per steradian is derived from the lumen (a unit of luminous flux) and steradian (a unit of solid angle).
CurrentUse: Commonly used in photometry, especially when describing directional light sources like projectors or flashlights.
funfact: This unit is key in measuring how light spreads in a specific direction, and is used for understanding light distribution in optical devices.
candle (international) [c]
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity based on a specific standard of candle power, defined as the intensity of light emitted by a particular substance (usually spermaceti oil) under standard conditions.
Historyandorigin: This unit was originally based on the light emitted by a standard candle made from spermaceti, but it was later redefined for standardization purposes.
CurrentUse: Historically used to measure the brightness of light sources. It has largely been replaced by the modern unit of luminous intensity, the candela, in the SI system.
funfact: The international candle was one of the first standardized units for measuring light intensity and played a key role in the development of modern photometry.

How to Convert lumen/steradian to candle (international)
1 lumen/steradian [lm/sr] = 1 candle (international) [c]
1 candle (international) [c] = 1 lumen/steradian [lm/sr]
we use cross multiplication method
lumen/steradian [lm/sr] → candle (international) [c]
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
