Please provide values below to convert joule [J] to erg, or change ↔.
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.
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.

How to Convert joule to erg
1 joule [J] = 10000000 erg
1 erg = 1.E-7 joule [J]
we use cross multiplication method
joule [J] → erg
1 → 10000000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*10000000=1*x
by simplifying
x=15000000
