Engineering & science
By using our calculators, you agree to our Terms of Use.
Lightweight science and engineering calculators for homework and bench work: Ohm’s law (volts, amps, ohms), density from mass and volume, molarity from moles and liters, binary/hex/decimal conversion, and scientific notation formatting. Enter what you know; the tool solves for the rest. Classroom estimates — double-check significant figures and unit conventions for graded work.
The most common source of a wrong answer here is not the formula but the prefix. Milliamps entered as amps, or millilitres treated as litres, shifts a result by three orders of magnitude while still looking plausible on screen. Convert everything to base units before you enter it, then convert the answer back at the end. For Ohm’s law, remember these tools model idealised DC resistance: real circuits involve tolerance bands, temperature coefficients, and — with AC — reactance that this arithmetic does not capture. Use the output to check your own working rather than as a substitute for it, since most coursework awards marks for method.
10 tools in this section
Ohm's Law
Calculate voltage, current, or resistance using V = I × R.
Density
Calculate density from mass and volume (ρ = m/V).
Molarity
Molarity (M) from solute mass, molar mass, and volume in liters — moles ÷ L. Free chemistry lab calculator.
Binary & Hex
Convert decimal numbers to binary and hexadecimal.
Scientific Notation
Convert numbers to and from scientific notation.
Gear Ratio
Calculate gear ratio from driver and driven teeth and find output RPM from input speed.
Mechanical Advantage
Calculate ideal mechanical advantage from effort arm and load arm lengths on a lever.
Voltage Drop
Estimate DC voltage drop in copper wire from current, one-way length, and cross-section. Not a code compliance tool.
Resistor Divider
Calculate output voltage from a two-resistor divider: Vout = Vin × R2 / (R1 + R2).
Battery Life
Estimate battery runtime from capacity (mAh) and load current (mA). Hours = mAh ÷ mA for ideal DC loads.
