Converting from Joule per Second (J/s) to Erg per Second (erg/s) | Power

What is Joule per Second (J/s)

Joule per Second (J/s) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred per second. It is commonly used to quantify the power output of various devices and systems.

What is Erg per Second (erg/s)

Erg per Second (erg/s) is another unit of power, commonly used in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. An erg is a unit of energy equal to 10^-7 joules. Therefore, erg per second is the power equivalent of transferring energy at the rate of one erg per second.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Joule per Second (J/s) to Erg per Second (erg/s), you can use the following formulas:

erg/s=J/s×107

J/s=erg/s×10−7

Examples

1. When converting 6 J/s to erg/s:

6J/s=6×107erg/s=60000000erg/s

2. Converting 5 erg/s to J/s:

5erg/s=5×10−7J/s=0.0000005J/s

3. If you want to convert 14 J/s to erg/s:

14J/s=140000000erg/s=0.0000014J/s

This guide will help you easily convert power measurements between Joule per Second (J/s) and Erg per Second (erg/s) using the appropriate conversion factors.
