How the formula works
Both zeptojoule and petajoule measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in zeptojoules by 1.000000000e-36 to get petajoules. To reverse the conversion, multiply a petajoule value by 1.000000000e+36 to get back to zeptojoules.
Frequently asked questions
What is Zeptojoule (zJ)?
A zeptojoule (zJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-21 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI zepto 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 zeptojoules to petajoules?
Multiply the zeptojoule value by 1.000000000e-36 to get the equivalent in petajoules. For example, 5 zJ × 1.000000000e-36 = 5.000000e-36 PJ.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 1.000000000e-36 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert petajoules back to zeptojoules?
Yes. Divide the petajoule value by 1.000000000e-36, or multiply it by 1.000000000e+36, to get zeptojoules.
