Question about the ap chart

[Danny1112]

I've been having problems with this for some time now.


How do you convert a result given in joules into Tons, If converted into Tons how do you classify it in the AP chart,like how do you know it's 17 petatons or 300 exatons??I Need help on this please.

Dividing. If you want easy mode, on a laptop or PC on Chrome, you can just enter "(X amount of Joules) to Tons of TNT" or whatever value of TNT you'd like them in.

Yeah I've done this,the problem now is,after converting to tons it doesn't specifically say it's in petaton range or zettaton range,it just shows a huge number,eg(7.122e32=Tons of TNT ??=petatons or zettatons??what range)so how do you know the result is in a specific ton par the ap chart??

They're standard prefixes, you go up one every thousandfold increase.

 

[Mr. Bambu]

If you put in "to Tons of TNT", it comes out in Tons. If you put in Exatons, it comes out in Exatons.

How so??to be clear,how can I know it's in zetaton range or exaton range after converting the results to ton??

Basically 1 tnt tons = 4184000000 J
