How the formula works
Both watt-hour and nanojoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in watt hours by 3600000000000 to get nanojoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a nanojoule value by 2.777777778e-13 to get back to watt hours.
Frequently asked questions
What is Watt-hour (Wh)?
A watt-hour (Wh) is the energy delivered by one watt of power sustained for one hour, equal to 3,600 joules.
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.
How do I convert watt hours to nanojoules?
Multiply the watt-hour value by 3600000000000 to get the equivalent in nanojoules. For example, 5 Wh × 3600000000000 = 1.800000e+13 nJ.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 3600000000000 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert nanojoules back to watt hours?
Yes. Divide the nanojoule value by 3600000000000, or multiply it by 2.777777778e-13, to get watt hours.
