An electron-volt (eV) is a unit of energy commonly used in physics to describe the energy gained or lost by an electron when it moves through an electric potential difference of one volt. To convert energy measured in electron-volts to electrical voltage in volts (V), you can use the formula:
V(V)=E(eV)Q(e)V(V) = \frac{E(eV)}{Q(e)}
where EE is the energy in electron-volts and QQ is the electric charge in elementary charge units. Alternatively, when the charge is expressed in coulombs (C), the formula becomes:
V(V)=1.602176565×10−19×E(eV)Q(C)V(V) = \frac{1.602176565 \times 10^{-19} \times E(eV)}{Q(C)}
These calculations are essential in fields like particle physics and electronics, where understanding the relationship between energy and voltage is crucial. For a practical tool to perform these conversions, you can use the electron-volts to volts calculator available at RapidTables. citeturn0search0
