Examples

1

Consider that a smartphone charger delivers 15 watts (W) of power.
Convert this power output from watts to Megawatts.

Answer:

Given:

The power in watts is:

Power(Watts) = 15

Formula:

The formula to convert power from watts to megawatts is:

Power(Megawatts) = Power(Watts) / 1e6

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Power(Watts) = 15 in the above formula.

Power(Megawatts) = 15 / 1e6

Power(Megawatts) = 0.000015

Final Answer:

Therefore, 15 W is equal to 0.000015 MW.

The power is 0.000015 MW, in megawatts.

2

Consider that a laptop uses 65 watts (W) of power while charging.
Convert this power usage from watts to Megawatts.

Answer:

Given:

The power in watts is:

Power(Watts) = 65

Formula:

The formula to convert power from watts to megawatts is:

Power(Megawatts) = Power(Watts) / 1e6

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Power(Watts) = 65 in the above formula.

Power(Megawatts) = 65 / 1e6

Power(Megawatts) = 0.000065

Final Answer:

Therefore, 65 W is equal to 0.000065 MW.

The power is 0.000065 MW, in megawatts.
