Convert Volt to Kilovolt
Unit definitions
Volt
The volt is the SI unit of electric potential. One volt is defined as the electric potential difference between two points on a conducting wire carrying one ampere of current and dissipating one watt of power.
Kilovolt
$10^{3} \ \text{V}$ is a kilovolt.
How to convert Volt to Kilovolt
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{V}}}{{10}^{3}}$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $20.0\ \text{V}$ to $\text{kV}$.
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{20.0}{{10}^{3}}$$
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = 0.02$$
$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{V} = 0.02 \ \text{kV}$$
Example 2
Convert $70.0\ \text{V}$ to $\text{kV}$.
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{70.0}{{10}^{3}}$$
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = 0.07$$
$$\therefore \ 70.0\ \text{V} = 0.07 \ \text{kV}$$
Example 3
Convert $110.0\ \text{V}$ to $\text{kV}$.
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{110.0}{{10}^{3}}$$
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = 0.11$$
$$\therefore \ 110.0\ \text{V} = 0.11 \ \text{kV}$$
Example 4
Convert $130.0\ \text{V}$ to $\text{kV}$.
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{130.0}{{10}^{3}}$$
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = 0.13$$
$$\therefore \ 130.0\ \text{V} = 0.13 \ \text{kV}$$
Example 5
Convert $165.0\ \text{V}$ to $\text{kV}$.
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = \frac{165.0}{{10}^{3}}$$
$$\text{Electric Potential}_{\text{kV}} = 0.165$$
$$\therefore \ 165.0\ \text{V} = 0.165 \ \text{kV}$$
