Convert kiloelectron-volt to poundal foot
Please provide values below to convert kiloelectron-volt [keV] to poundal foot [pdl*ft], or Convert poundal foot to kiloelectron-volt.
1 keV = 3.8020e-15 pdl*ft. To convert kiloelectron-volt to poundal foot, multiply the value by 3.8020e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pdl*ft = 2.6302e+14 keV). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 keV = 3.8020e-15 pdl*ft
- 1 pdl*ft = 2.6302e+14 keV
- 10 keV = 3.8020e-14 pdl*ft

Kiloelectron-Volt
A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 electron-volts, commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics to measure small amounts of energy.
History/Origin
The electron-volt was introduced in the early 20th century as a convenient unit for expressing energies at the atomic scale, with the prefix 'kilo' added later to denote 1,000 electron-volts, especially in high-energy physics and astrophysics.
Current Use
The keV is widely used today in fields such as X-ray spectroscopy, astrophysics, and particle physics to quantify energies of particles, photons, and nuclear processes.
Poundal Foot
The poundal foot (pdl*ft) is a unit of energy representing the work done when a force of one poundal acts over a distance of one foot.
History/Origin
The poundal foot originated in the foot-poundal system of units, which was used primarily in the 19th and early 20th centuries in engineering and physics before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
The poundal foot is rarely used today and has been largely replaced by the joule in scientific and engineering contexts. It may still appear in historical references or specialized fields dealing with imperial units.
