An erg is the unit of energy and mechanical work in the centimetre-gram-second (CGS) system of units, symbol "erg". Its name is derived from the Greek ergon meaning work [OED].
   The erg is a small unit, equal to a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimetre. In the CGS base units, it's equal to one gram centimetre-squared per second squared (g·cm²/s²). It is thus equal to 1 × 10⁻⁷ joules or 100 nanojoule (nJ) in SI units.
   1 erg = 10⁻⁷ joule 1 erg = 6.2415 GeV = 6.2415 eV
   1 joule = 10⁷ erg
   1 dyn cm = 1 erg.
