Quick Reference

1 Erg = 1.000e-10 Kilojoule

1 Kilojoule = 10000000000.00 Erg

Erg to Kilojoule Conversion Formula

To convert Erg to Kilojoule, multiply by 1.000e-10.

Kilojoule = Erg × 1.000e-10

Erg = Kilojoule × 10000000000.00

To convert Kilojoule back to Erg, divide by 1.000e-10 (or multiply by 10000000000.00).

About These Units

About Erg

The erg is the unit of work or energy in the CGS system, equal to the work done by a force of one dyne acting through a distance of one centimeter. Equivalently, one erg is the kinetic energy of a mass of 2 grams moving at a velocity of 1 cm/sec. This is equal to 0.1 microjoule, or about 7.375 x 10E-8 foot-pound. The name of the unit is from the Greek word ergon, work. There is no symbol; the word is spelled out in full. Adding prefixes is a problem: 1000 ergs is usually called a kiloerg, but one million ergs is a megalerg, the "l" being added to ease pronunciation.

About Kilojoule

The kilojoule is a unit of energy used to measure work, heat, or power in various scientific and engineering contexts.
