Conversion of Units

Asked by Anushka Kapoorji · 1 year ago

How do you convert between different units of magnetic field intensity?

1 Answer

Converting between different units of magnetic field intensity involves using conversion factors. Here are some common conversions:

1. Ampere per meter (A/m) to Oersted (Oe):
1 A/m = 4π × 10^-3 Oe

2. Oersted (Oe) to Ampere per meter (A/m):
1 Oe = 79.5775 A/m

3. Tesla (T) to Ampere per meter (A/m):
H (A/m) = B (T) / μ0
Where μ0 = 4π × 10^-7 H/m (permeability of free space)

4. Gauss (G) to Ampere per meter (A/m):
1 G = 79.5775 A/m

Remember that Tesla (T) and Gauss (G) are units of magnetic flux density (B), not magnetic field intensity (H). However, in vacuum or air, the numerical values of B and H are related by the permeability of free space.
