Convert Maxwell to Kilomaxwell
Convert maxwells to kilomaxwells by entering a value below.
How to Convert Maxwells to Kilomaxwells
The maxwell and kilomaxwell are both units of magnetic flux. By definition, 1 kilomaxwell equals exactly 1000 maxwells. This means to convert maxwells to kilomaxwells, you divide by 1000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 Mx to kilomaxwells:
We need to convert maxwells to kilomaxwells
Since 1 kMx = 1000 Mx, divide by 1000
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
5 Mx = 0.005 kMx

About These Units
Maxwell (Mx)
The maxwell (Mx) is the CGS unit of magnetic flux. One weber equals 10⁸ maxwells (100 million). Named after James Clerk Maxwell. One maxwell = one gauss × one square centimeter. Found in older physics literature and some magnetic specifications.
Kilomaxwell (kMx)
A kilomaxwell (kMx) equals 1,000 maxwells or 10⁻⁵ webers (10 microwebers). Provides a convenient CGS scale for small magnetic devices. One kilomaxwell = 10 microweber. Rarely used; webers and milliwebers preferred.
