An erg is the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimeter. In the CGS base units, it is equal to one gram centimeter-squared per second-squared (g. cm2/s2). It is thus equal to 10−7 joules or 100 nanojoules (nJ) in SI units.

Joule is the SI unit of energy while erg is the cgs unit of energy.
1 Joule of Energy = 1 Newton x 1 metre
1 erg= 1 dyne x 1 cm
1 joule= 1 newton x 1 metre=105 dynes x 102 cm=107 erg
1 J = 107 erg
Therefore, 1 Joule is equal to 107 erg.
