Question

100J of energy is equivalent to K ergs ( in CGS) FIND k

Answer 1

Explanation:

1 erg is 10^-7j

x ergs is 10^-7

Answer 2

Answer:

$\\ 100 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{ergs} \\\\ 1 \mathrm{J}=1 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{ergs}$

Explanation:

Both Joule and ergs are unit of work and energy. Erg is derived from the base units centimetre, gram and seconds. Joule is the unit of energy in International System of units (SI) derived from kilogram, metres and seconds. Erg is not an SI units. While the typical explanation of work done is force by distance erg is the amount of work done by a force exerted on a dyne over a distance of a centimetre.
