Watt-hour to megajoule Conversion
1 watt-hour (W⋅hr) is equal to 0.0036 megajoule (MJ).
1 W⋅hr = 0.0036 MJ
or
1 MJ = 277.7777778 W⋅hr
Formula
To convert a energy from watt-hour (W⋅hr) to megajoule (MJ), divide the energy in watt-hour by 277.7777778
e(MJ) = e(W⋅hr) / 277.7777778
Examples:
Convert 500 watt-hour to megajoule:
e(MJ) = 500W⋅hr / 277.7777778 = 1.8 MJ
