About Megaelectronvolt
A megaelectronvolt is 10^6 eV and appears in nuclear and particle physics contexts.
About Calorie
The small calorie (cal) is 4.184 J in this converter (thermochemical). Do not confuse with the dietary kilocalorie (kcal).
How to convert megaelectronvolts to calories
1 megaelectronvolt is equal to 3.82929406e-14 calorie when both are expressed in joule-equivalents:
1 mev = (1.602176634e-13 J ÷ 4.184 J) cal = 3.82929406e-14 cal
Each megaelectronvolt is defined as 1.602176634e-13 J and each calorie as 4.184 J in this tool, so one mev equals 1.602176634e-13 ÷ 4.184 cal = 3.82929406e-14 cal.
Let d(mev) be the numeric amount in Megaelectronvolt (mev), and d(cal) the amount in Calorie (cal). Then:
d(cal) = d(mev) × (1.602176634e-13 / 4.184)
Equivalently, divide by how many mev fit into one cal (joules per cal divided by joules per mev):
d(cal) = d(mev) ÷ 2.61144740e+13
Or: calorie = megaelectronvolt ÷ 2.61144740e+13
Examples
Example #1: Convert 1 mev to calorie
1 mev = 1 mev × (1.602176634e-13/4.184) cal = 0 cal
1 mev = 1 mev ÷ 2.61144740e+13 = 0 cal
Example #2: Convert 10 mev to calorie
10 mev = 10 mev × (1.602176634e-13/4.184) cal = 0 cal
10 mev = 10 mev ÷ 2.61144740e+13 = 0 cal
Summary
To convert Megaelectronvolt to Calorie, multiply the value in mev by the ratio of joules per mev divided by joules per cal. Equivalently: value_cal = value_mev × (1.602176634e-13 / 4.184). Numerically, 1 mev equals 3.8292940583173995e-14 cal.
Relationship context
You are converting between atomic-scale energy (electronvolts) (Megaelectronvolts) and food / nutrition energy (calories) (Calories). All values are mapped through joules first. The numeric factor is 3.829294e-14.
