How the formula works
Both nanojoule and centijoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in nanojoules by 1.000000000e-07 to get centijoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centijoule value by 10000000 to get back to nanojoules.
Frequently asked questions
What is Nanojoule (nJ)?
A nanojoule (nJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-9 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI nano prefix.
What is Centijoule (cJ)?
A centijoule (cJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-2 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI centi prefix.
How do I convert nanojoules to centijoules?
Multiply the nanojoule value by 1.000000000e-07 to get the equivalent in centijoules. For example, 5 nJ × 1.000000000e-07 = 5.000000e-07 cJ.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 1.000000000e-07 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centijoules back to nanojoules?
Yes. Divide the centijoule value by 1.000000000e-07, or multiply it by 10000000, to get nanojoules.
