Understanding Watt-Second to Gigajoule Conversion
Conversion Formula
1 Gigajoule (GJ) = 1,000,000,000 Watt-seconds (Ws)
To convert: Gigajoules = Watt-seconds ÷ 1,000,000,000
What is a Watt-Second?
A watt-second (Ws) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt of power sustained for one second. It's equal to one joule and is commonly used in electrical and energy calculations.
What is a Gigajoule?
A gigajoule (GJ) is a unit of energy equal to one billion (109) joules. It's commonly used for measuring large amounts of energy in industrial and commercial applications.
