# If the magnetic field is Oersted, how to convert it into Tesla? Suppose the magnetic field is 50 Oersted, in Tesla what is the magnetic field?

Hello Amith2006,

the following relation for magnetic field strength given in Ampere A/metre m and Oersted Oe holds true for vacuum and matter:

[tex]1\,\frac{A}{m}=4\pi\,10^{-3}\,Oe[/tex]


In vacuum a magnetic field strength of [itex]1\,\frac{A}{m}[/itex] will lead to a magnetic flux density of [itex]4\pi\,10^{-7}\,T[/itex].

Regards,
