To convert megohms (MΩ) to ohms (Ω), you need to recognize that “mega” is a prefix meaning one million. Therefore, 1 megohm is equal to 1,000,000 ohms.

Conversion Formula

Ohms (Ω) = Megohms (MΩ) × 1,000,000

Example Conversions

Here’s how you can use the formula with some example values:

Megohms (MΩ) Formula Ohms (Ω)
1 MΩ 1 × 1,000,000 1,000,000 Ω
5 MΩ 5 × 1,000,000 5,000,000 Ω
10 MΩ 10 × 1,000,000 10,000,000 Ω
50 MΩ 50 × 1,000,000 50,000,000 Ω
100 MΩ 100 × 1,000,000 100,000,000 Ω

How to Convert MΩ to Ω

  1. Identify the Value in Megohms: For example, 3 MΩ.
  2. Apply the Conversion Formula:
    • Multiply the number of megohms by 1,000,000.
    • For 3 MΩ:
      • Calculation: 3 × 1,000,000 = 3,000,000 Ω.

Practical Uses

  • Electronics: Converting high resistance values in circuits and components.
  • Measurement: Reading resistance values on high-resistance components and converting to ohms.
  • Engineering: Calculating resistances in electrical systems with large resistances.

Summary

To convert megohms to ohms, multiply the number of megohms by 1,000,000. For instance, 1 megohm equals 1,000,000 ohms, and 50 megohms equals 50,000,000 ohms. This simple multiplication is crucial for working with high-resistance values in electronics and engineering.
