Convert lambda to pinch

Learn how to convert 1 lambda to pinch step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (l a m b d a) = x (p i n c h)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(c u b i c m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (l a m b d a) = 10^{- 9} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 10^{- 9} (m^{3})

Right side: 1.0 (p i n c h) = 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7} (c u b i c m e t e r) = 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7} (m^{3})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (l a m b d a) = x (p i n c h)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \times (c u b i c m e t e r) = x \times 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7} \times (c u b i c m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 9} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \cdot 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7} \cdot (m^{3})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 9} \cdot (m^{3}) = x \times 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7} \times (m^{3})

Conversion Equation

10^{- 9} = x \times 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

{10^{- 9}}^{10^{- 2}} = x \times 6.1611519921875 \times 10^{- 7}

Simplify

10^{- 2} = x \times 6.1611519921875

Switch sides

x \times 6.1611519921875 = 10^{- 2}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{6.1611519921875})

x \times 6.1611519921875 \times \frac{1.0}{6.1611519921875} = 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{6.1611519921875}

Cancel

x \times 6.1611519921875 \times \frac{1.0}{6.1611519921875} = 10^{- 2} \times \frac{1.0}{6.1611519921875}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 2}}{6.1611519921875}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0016230731 \approx 1.6231 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (l a m b d a) \approx 1.6231 \times 10^{- 3} (p i n c h)
