Magnetic flux density is a measure of the strength of the magnetic field per unit area. It is commonly measured in teslas (T) or gauss (G).

Units and Conversion

• Tesla (T): The base unit of magnetic flux density in the International System of Units (SI).
• Gauss (G): 1 G = 1 × 10^-4 T
• MilliTesla (mT): 1 mT = 1 × 10^-3 T
• MicroTesla (µT): 1 µT = 1 × 10^-6 T
• NanoTesla (nT): 1 nT = 1 × 10^-9 T

Examples

Example 1: Convert 500 mT to T:

500 mT = 500 × 10^-3 T = 0.5 T

Example 2: Convert 2 T to µT:

2 T = 2 × 10^6 µT = 2,000,000 µT
