You can do the reverse unit conversion from hectofarad to dekafarad, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "deka" represents a factor of 101, or in exponential notation, 1E1.
So 1 dekafarad = 101 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.
