How the formula works
Both decajoule and petajoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in decajoules by 1.000000000e-14 to get petajoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a petajoule value by 100000000000000 to get back to decajoules.
Frequently asked questions
What is Decajoule (daJ)?
A decajoule (daJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 101 joules, using the SI deca 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 decajoules to petajoules?
Multiply the decajoule value by 1.000000000e-14 to get the equivalent in petajoules. For example, 5 daJ × 1.000000000e-14 = 5.000000e-14 PJ.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 1.000000000e-14 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert petajoules back to decajoules?
Yes. Divide the petajoule value by 1.000000000e-14, or multiply it by 100000000000000, to get decajoules.
