Kilojoule to Joule Conversion Formula

To convert from Kilojoule (kJ) to Joule (J), use the following formula:

 Joule (J)\textbf{ Joule} \text{ (J)}

=1000× Kilojoule (kJ)= 1000\times \textbf{ Kilojoule} \text{ (kJ)}

Example

Let's convert 5 Kilojoule (kJ) to Joule (J).

Using the formula:

5×1000=50005 \times 1000 = 5000

Therefore, 5 Kilojoule (kJ) is equal to 50005000 Joule (J).
