How to Convert Gauss to Teslas
Converting gauss (G) to teslas (T) is a common conversion in physics and engineering. One gauss is equal to 0.0001 teslas.
Formula
Teslas = Gauss / 10000
or
T = G / 10000
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in gauss
- Divide that number by 10,000
- The result is the equivalent amount in teslas
Examples
- 1 G = 0.0001 T
- 10 G = 0.001 T
- 10,000 G = 1 T
When to Convert Gauss to Teslas
This conversion is essential for engineers and physicists working with magnetic fields, as both gauss and teslas are common units for such measurements.
Common Gauss to Teslas Conversions
Here is a table of common gauss to tesla conversions for quick reference:
| Gauss (G) | Teslas (T) | Gauss (G) | Teslas (T) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0.0001 | 10,000 | 1 |
| 10 | 0.001 | 100,000 | 10 |
| 100 | 0.01 | 1,000,000 | 100 |
| 1000 | 0.1 | 10,000,000 | 1000 |
Frequently Asked Questions
How many teslas are in a gauss?
There are 0.0001 teslas in one gauss.
Why is the conversion factor 1/10,000?
One tesla is defined as one weber per square meter, and one gauss is defined as one maxwell per square centimeter. The conversion factor arises from the relationship between these units in the CGS and SI systems.
