About These Units

About Kilojoule

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

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.
