Chittack (Chatank)

What is a chittack (chatank)?

The chittack (chatank) equals one-sixteenth of a seer, about 58.3 grams.

Origin of the chittack (chatank)

A traditional South Asian unit in the seer-based system.

Where it is used

Historical grocery and provisions weighing in India and Bangladesh.

When and where it was developed

Part of the pre-metric South Asian weight system.

Scientific / Atomic

MeV/c2

What is a mev/c2?

MeV/c^2 expresses mass through mass-energy equivalence, E = mc^2; 1 MeV/c^2 is about 1.783E-30 kg.

Origin of the mev/c2

Derived from Einstein's mass-energy relation, convenient for particle masses.

Where it is used

Particle physics, where masses are stated in MeV/c^2 or GeV/c^2.

When and where it was developed

Came into use with relativistic particle physics in the 20th century.

Chittack (Chatank) to MeV/c2 conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between chittacks (chatank) and mev/c2:

1 chittack = 3.271457e+28 MeV/c²
1 MeV/c² = 3.056742e-29 chittack

To convert chittacks (chatank) to mev/c2, multiply the value in chittacks (chatank) by 3.271457e+28. To reverse, multiply mev/c2 by 3.056742e-29.

How to use this converter

Type a value into the calculator. The result in mev/c2 updates as you type. Tap a quick value, copy the result with one click, or use the swap arrow to jump straight to the MeV/c2 to Chittack (Chatank) converter for the reverse direction.

Step-by-step: convert chittacks (chatank) to mev/c2

  1. Write down the value in chittacks (chatank) (chittack).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 3.271457e+28.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in mev/c2 (MeV/c²).
  4. To reverse, multiply the mev/c2 value by 3.056742e-29.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 chittack to MeV/c²:
1 × 3.271457e+28 = 3.271457e+28 MeV/c²

Example 2 — Convert 100 chittack to MeV/c²:
100 × 3.271457e+28 = 3.271457e+30 MeV/c²

Real-world example — Small-scale to atomic-scale

One chittack (chatank) equals 10 million mev/c2 — useful for physics curricula that relate everyday measurements to atomic and optical scales.

1 chittack × 3.271457e+28 = 3.271457e+28 MeV/c²

Real-world example — Centimeter to wavelength scale
