Understanding Millicoulomb to Coulomb Conversion
What are Millicoulombs and Coulombs?
The coulomb (symbol: C) is the SI unit of electric charge. One coulomb is defined as the amount of electric charge transported by a constant current of one ampere in one second.
The millicoulomb (symbol: mC) is a submultiple of the coulomb, equal to one-thousandth (1/1000) of a coulomb.
Conversion Formula
To convert between millicoulombs and coulombs, use the following formulas:
Millicoulomb to Coulomb:
Q(C) = Q(mC) / 1000
Coulomb to Millicoulomb:
Q(mC) = Q(C) × 1000
Conversion Examples
Example 1: Convert 25 millicoulombs to coulombs
Q(C) = 25 mC / 1000 = 0.025 C
Example 2: Convert 0.35 coulombs to millicoulombs
Q(mC) = 0.35 C × 1000 = 350 mC
Practical Applications
Electric charge conversion between millicoulombs and coulombs is commonly used in:
- Electrical engineering calculations
- Physics experiments and measurements
- Battery capacity specifications
- Capacitor charge calculations
- Electrostatics research
Relationship to Other Units
The coulomb is related to other electrical units:
- 1 coulomb = 1 ampere × 1 second
- 1 coulomb = 6.242 × 10^18 elementary charges (electrons or protons)
- Electric potential energy in joules (J) = charge in coulombs (C) × voltage (V)
