You can view more details on each measurement unit: decifarad or hectofarad The SI derived unit for capacitance is the farad. 1 farad is equal to 10 decifarad, or 0.01 hectofarad. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between decifarads and hectofarads. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
1 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.001 hectofarad
10 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.01 hectofarad
50 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.05 hectofarad
100 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.1 hectofarad
200 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.2 hectofarad
500 decifarad to hectofarad = 0.5 hectofarad
1000 decifarad to hectofarad = 1 hectofarad
You can do the reverse unit conversion from hectofarad to decifarad, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "deci" represents a factor of 10-1, or in exponential notation, 1E-1.
So 1 decifarad = 10-1 farads.
The definition of a farad is as follows:
The farad (symbol F) is the SI unit of capacitance (named after Michael Faraday). A capacitor has a value of one farad when one coulomb of charge causes a potential difference of one volt across it. Its equivalent expressions in other SI units are: Since the farad is a very large unit, values of capacitors are usually expressed in microfarads (?F), nanofarads (nF), or picofarads (pF). The picofarad is comically called a "puff" in laboratory usage.
The SI prefix "hecto" represents a factor of 102, or in exponential notation, 1E2.
So 1 hectofarad = 102 farads.
