: (63 TJ)*(1E15 Joules)*(1 Mt)/(1 TJ)/(4.184E15 Joules) = 15.057 Mt

: Conversions: 1E15 = Tera(whatever)
: 1 Megaton (Mt) = 4.184 x 10^15 Joules

: Following these conversions and canceling out the units (which if in doubt,
: cancel units to arrive at the correct number!), you arrive at the answer
: of 15.057 Megatons. That's roughly half of the expected yield of a HAVOK
: Nuclear Warhead ( http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/HAVOK_Nuclear_Warhead ).
