What does microhenry measure?

Microhenry (µH) is a unit of electrical inductance representing one millionth of a henry, used for small inductors and coils.

When would I use petahenry as a unit?

Petahenry is used to express extremely large inductance values in theoretical or large-scale electromagnetic modeling, such as in astrophysics.

Why is the converted value from microhenry to petahenry so small?

Because one microhenry equals 1e-21 petahenry, the conversion yields very small numbers reflecting the vast difference in unit scale.
