How to convert Joules to Megajoules
Multiply the joules value by 1e-6: 1 J = 1e-6 MJ. Going the other way, 1 MJ = 1e+6 J, so divide by 1e-6 or use the Megajoules to Joules converter.
About these units
Joules (J)
The joule is the SI unit of energy: the work done by a force of one newton over one meter. Lifting a small apple one meter takes about one joule.
Megajoules (MJ)
A megajoule is one million joules. A kilowatt-hour is 3.6 MJ, and vehicle fuels contain roughly 30 to 45 MJ per liter or kilogram.
