Nanotesla

Key Stage 4

Meaning

Nanoteslas (nT) are a unit of magnetic flux density 1,000,000,000 times smaller than the SI Unit; the Tesla.

About Microteslas

Nanoteslas are shortened to nT with a lower case n and an upper case T.

Nano means one billionth so there are 1,000,000,000 nanoteslas in a Tesla.
