Formula

The formula to convert given power from Decibel-watts to Watts is:

Power(Watts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-watts)/10))

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that a radio station transmitter operates at 50 decibel-watts (dBW).
Convert this power level from decibel-watts to Watts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 50 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Watts...

The formula to convert from Decibel-watts to Watts is:

Power(Watts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-watts)/10))

Substitute given Power(Decibel-watts) = 50 in the above formula.

Power(Watts) = Math.pow(10,(50/10))

Power(Watts) = 100000

Therefore, 50 dBW is equal to 100000 W.

2

Consider that a satellite transmits signals at 40 decibel-watts (dBW).
Convert this power level from decibel-watts to Watts.

Answer

Given:

Power in Decibel-watts = 40 dBW

Converting Power from Decibel-watts to Watts...

The formula to convert from Decibel-watts to Watts is:

Power(Watts) = Math.pow(10,(Power(Decibel-watts)/10))

Substitute given Power(Decibel-watts) = 40 in the above formula.

Power(Watts) = Math.pow(10,(40/10))

Power(Watts) = 10000

Therefore, 40 dBW is equal to 10000 W.

Decibel-watts

A decibel watt (dBW) is a unit of power level relative to one watt, expressed in decibels. It is commonly used in telecommunications and audio engineering to describe power levels in a logarithmic scale.

Watts

The watt (W) is the SI unit of power, defined as one joule per second. It is used to measure the rate of energy transfer and is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including electricity, mechanics, and heating.
