How the formula works
Both attojoule and petajoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in attojoules by 1.000000000e-33 to get petajoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a petajoule value by 1.000000000e+33 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 Petajoule (PJ)?
A petajoule (PJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 1015 joules, using the SI peta prefix.
How do I convert attojoules to petajoules?
Multiply the attojoule value by 1.000000000e-33 to get the equivalent in petajoules. For example, 5 aJ × 1.000000000e-33 = 5.000000e-33 PJ.
Is this conversion exact?
