1. Ergnoun

   The unit of work or energy in the C. G. S. system, being the amount of work done by a dyne working through a distance of one centimeter; the amount of energy expended in moving a body one centimeter against a force of one dyne (981 dynes exert the same force as a one gram mass in the earth's gravitational field). One foot pound is equal to 13,560,000 ergs. The absolute Joule is equivalent to 107 ergs, which are equivalent to 0.2389 gram-calories at 15

1. erg

   An erg is a unit of work or energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units, equal to the work done by a force of one dyne when its point of application moves one centimeter in the direction of action of the force. It is equivalent to 10^-7 joules in the International System of Units (SI).

1. Erg

   An erg is the unit of energy and mechanical work in the centimetre–gram–second system of units, symbol "erg". Its name is derived from the Greek ergon, meaning "work". 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. It is thus equal to 10−7 joules or 100 nanojoules in SI units. 1 erg = 10−7 J = 100 nJ 1 erg = 624.15 GeV = 6.2415×10^11 eV 1 erg = 1 dyne cm = 1 g·cm²/s²

1. Erg

   erg, n. the unit of work in the centimetre-gramme-second system—that is, the quantity of work done by a force which, acting for one second upon a mass of one gramme, produces a velocity of one centimetre per second. [Gr. erg-on, work.]
