Convert Femtotesla to Gauss

Type the number of femtoteslas that you wish to convert to gauss.

1 fT (femtoteslas) = 1e-11 G (gauss)

How to Convert Femtoteslas to Gauss

The femtotesla and gauss are both units of magnetic field. By definition, 1 gauss equals exactly 100000000000 femtoteslas. This means to convert femtoteslas to gauss, you divide by 100000000000.

Formula

gauss = femtoteslas ÷ 100000000000

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 fT to gauss:

1
Convert 5 fT to gauss

We need to convert femtoteslas to gauss

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 G = 100000000000 fT, divide by 100000000000

5 ÷ 100000000000 = 5e-11

Answer

5 fT = 5e-11 G

About These Units

Femtotesla (fT)

A femtotesla (fT) equals 10⁻¹⁵ teslas. Measures biomagnetic fields: human brain activity 10-1000 fT, human heart (MCG) 1-100 pT. SQUID sensors can detect sub-femtotesla fields. At the frontier of magnetic field measurement.

Gauss (G)

The gauss (G) is the CGS unit of magnetic flux density. One tesla = 10,000 gauss. Earth's field: 0.25-0.65 G. Refrigerator magnet: 50-100 G. Neodymium magnet: 10,000-14,000 G at surface. Named after mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss.
