erg to joule
Please provide values below to convert erg to joule [J], or change ↔.
erg
Definition: An erg is a unit of energy equal to 10^-7 joules.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the CGS system.
CurrentUse: It is used in some scientific contexts.
funfact: One erg is equivalent to 10^-7 joules.
joule [J]
Definition: The joule is the base unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the work done when a force of one newton moves an object one meter.
Historyandorigin: Named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One joule is approximately the energy required to lift a small apple one meter.

How to Convert erg to joule
1 erg = 1.E-7 joule [J]
1 joule [J] = 10000000 erg
we use cross multiplication method
erg → joule [J]
1 → 1.E-7
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.E-7=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5E-7
