Scientific unit conversion matrix: reference

Convert with a shared reference unit

Choose a quantity, enter a value, and compare equivalent values across its units. Keep the physical quantity and unit definition consistent.

For example, 1 bar = 100,000 Pa = 100 kPa. Similarly, 2 kWh × 3,600,000 J/kWh = 7,200,000 J.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert between any two units?

Only when they measure the same physical quantity. Converting dynamic viscosity into kinematic viscosity requires density; changing units alone cannot supply it.

Why keep extra digits during a calculation?

Premature rounding can accumulate error. Keep sufficient intermediate precision and round the final result to match the precision of the original measurement.
