You can do the reverse unit conversion from centifarad to kilofarad, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "kilo" represents a factor of 103, or in exponential notation, 1E3.
So 1 kilofarad = 103 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 "centi" represents a factor of 10-2, or in exponential notation, 1E-2.
So 1 centifarad = 10-2 farads.
