- Rounding
- Displayed to 6 decimal places by default, trimmed for readability. Use Detailed or Scientific for more precision.
- Assumption
- Magnetic field strength conversions use exact SI prefix relationships. One oersted equals 1000 divided by 4 pi amperes per meter, approximately 79.57747154594767 A/m. Field strength is not the same as magnetic flux density; converting between H and B requires material permeability and conditions.
