How to convert Gigawatt to Petawatt

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{\text{Power}_{\text{GW}}}{{10}^{6}}$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $20.0\ \text{GW}$ to $\text{PW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{20.0}{{10}^{6}}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = 0.00002$$

$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{GW} = 0.00002 \ \text{PW}$$

Example 2

Convert $70.0\ \text{GW}$ to $\text{PW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{70.0}{{10}^{6}}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = 0.00007$$

$$\therefore \ 70.0\ \text{GW} = 0.00007 \ \text{PW}$$

Example 3

Convert $105.0\ \text{GW}$ to $\text{PW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{105.0}{{10}^{6}}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = 0.000105$$

$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{GW} = 0.000105 \ \text{PW}$$

Example 4

Convert $135.0\ \text{GW}$ to $\text{PW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{135.0}{{10}^{6}}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = 0.000135$$

$$\therefore \ 135.0\ \text{GW} = 0.000135 \ \text{PW}$$

Example 5

Convert $175.0\ \text{GW}$ to $\text{PW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = \frac{175.0}{{10}^{6}}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{PW}} = 0.000175$$

$$\therefore \ 175.0\ \text{GW} = 0.000175 \ \text{PW}$$
