How to Convert Electronvolts to Foot-pounds

To convert electronvolts (eV) to foot-pounds (ft-lb), multiply the number of electronvolts by 1.1817 x 10-19. This is because 1 eV is equal to 1.60218 x 10-19 joules, and 1 foot-pound is 1.35582 joules.

Formula

Foot-pounds = Electronvolts × (1.1817 × 10-19)

or

ft-lb = eV × 1.1817e-19

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in electronvolts
  2. Multiply that number by 1.1817e-19
  3. The result is the equivalent energy in foot-pounds

Examples

  • 1e19 eV = 1e19 × 1.1817e-19 = 1.1817 ft-lb
  • 1e20 eV = 1e20 × 1.1817e-19 = 11.817 ft-lb
  • 1e21 eV = 1e21 × 1.1817e-19 = 118.17 ft-lb
