Convert tonne / second to gram / hour

Learn how to convert 1 tonne / second to gram / hour step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d}) = x (\frac{g r a m}{h o u r})

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

(\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = 1016.0469088 (\frac{k g}{s})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{g r a m}{h o u r}) = \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{k g}{s})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d}) = x (\frac{g r a m}{h o u r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d}) = x \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{k i l o g r a m}{s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{s}) = x \cdot \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{k g}{s})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1016.0469088 \cdot (\frac{k g}{s}) = x \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{k g}{s})

Conversion Equation

1016.0469088 = x \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = 1016.0469088

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{10^{- 3}})

x \times \frac{10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{10^{- 3}} = 1016.0469088 \times \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{10^{- 3}}

Cancel

x \times \frac{10^{- 3} \times 3.6 \times 10^{3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3} \times 10^{- 3}} = 1016.0469088 \times \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{10^{- 3}}

Simplify

x = \frac{1016.0469088 \times 3.6 \times 10^{3}}{10^{- 3}}

Rewrite equation

\frac{1.0}{10^{- 3}} can be rewritten to 10^{3}

Rewrite

x = 10^{3} \times 1016.0469088 \times 3.6 \times 10^{3}

Simplify

x = 10^{6} \times 1016.0469088 \times 3.6

Solve

x

x = 3657768871.7 \approx 3.6578 \times 10^{9}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{t o n n e}{s e c o n d}) \approx 3.6578 \times 10^{9} (\frac{g r a m}{h o u r})
