Converting from Watt hour (W h) to Erg (erg) | Energy

What is Watt hour (W h)

Watt hour (W h) is a unit of energy equivalent to one watt (1 W) of power expended for one hour (1 h). It is commonly used to measure the energy consumption of various devices and appliances.

What is Erg (erg)

Erg (erg) is a unit of energy in the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system, defined as the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted over a distance of one centimeter. It is a smaller unit compared to the Watt hour and is often used in scientific calculations.
