How the formula works
Both attojoule and decijoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in attojoules by 1.000000000e-17 to get decijoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a decijoule value by 1.000000000e+17 to get back to attojoules.
Frequently asked questions
What is Attojoule (aJ)?
A attojoule (aJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-18 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI atto prefix.
What is Decijoule (dJ)?
A decijoule (dJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-1 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI deci prefix.
How do I convert attojoules to decijoules?
Multiply the attojoule value by 1.000000000e-17 to get the equivalent in decijoules. For example, 5 aJ × 1.000000000e-17 = 5.000000e-17 dJ.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 1.000000000e-17 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert decijoules back to attojoules?
Yes. Divide the decijoule value by 1.000000000e-17, or multiply it by 1.000000000e+17, to get attojoules.
