How to Convert Teslas to Gauss
Converting teslas (T) to gauss (G) is a common conversion in physics and engineering. One tesla is equal to 10,000 gauss.
Formula
Gauss = Teslas × 10000
or
G = T × 10000
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in teslas
- Multiply that number by 10,000
- The result is the equivalent amount in gauss
Examples
- 1 T = 10,000 G
- 10 T = 100,000 G
- 0.5 T = 5,000 G
When to Convert Teslas to Gauss
This conversion is essential for engineers and physicists working with magnetic fields, as both teslas and gauss are common units for such measurements.
Common Teslas to Gauss Conversions
Here is a table of common tesla to gauss conversions for quick reference:
| Teslas (T) | Gauss (G) | Teslas (T) | Gauss (G) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10,000 | 100 | 1,000,000 |
| 10 | 100,000 | 10,000 | 100,000,000 |
| 50 | 500,000 | 100,000 | 1,000,000,000 |
| 100 | 1,000,000 | 1,000,000 | 10,000,000,000 |
Frequently Asked Questions
How many gauss are in a tesla?
There are 10,000 gauss in one tesla.
Why is the conversion factor 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.
