Convert calorie (th) to ton (explosives)
Please provide values below to convert calorie (th) [cal (th)] to ton (explosives) [ton], or Convert ton (explosives) to calorie (th).
1 cal (th) = 1e-09 ton. To convert calorie (th) to ton (explosives), multiply the value by 1e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ton = 1000000000 cal (th)). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cal (th) = 1e-09 ton
- 1 ton = 1000000000 cal (th)
- 10 cal (th) = 1e-08 ton
- 100 cal (th) = 1e-07 ton
How to Convert Calorie (Th) to Ton (Explosives)
1 cal (th) = 1e-09 ton
Example: convert 15 cal (th) to ton:
15 cal (th) = 15 × 1e-09 ton = 1.5e-08 ton

Calorie (Th)
The calorie (th) is a unit of energy used to quantify the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
History/Origin
The calorie (th) was historically used in the context of thermochemistry and nutrition, originating from the calorie concept in the 19th century. It has largely been replaced by the joule in scientific contexts but remains in common use in some regions and fields.
Current Use
Today, the calorie (th) is primarily used in nutrition labeling and food energy measurements, especially in regions where the thermochemical calorie is still recognized, although the joule is the SI standard.
Ton (Explosives)
A ton (explosives) is a unit of measurement used to quantify the explosive power equivalent to one ton of TNT, typically used in military and demolition contexts.
History/Origin
The ton (explosives) originated as a standardized measure to compare explosive yields, with its use becoming prominent during the 20th century for military and industrial applications, aligning with the adoption of the ton as a unit of mass and energy.
Current Use
Today, the ton (explosives) is primarily used in military, demolition, and mining industries to estimate explosive quantities and effects, often expressed in terms of equivalent TNT mass for safety and planning purposes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 calorie (th) in ton (explosives)?
1 calorie (th) (cal (th)) = 1e-09 ton (explosives) (ton).
How do you convert calorie (th) to ton (explosives)?
