MegaJoule (MJ)

erg

The erg is a unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is equal to 1e-7 joules. The erg is commonly used in physics to measure small amounts of energy.

Origin:

The erg is derived from the joule, which is named after James Prescott Joule, an English physicist. The erg measures small amounts of energy in the CGS system.

MegaJoule

The megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to one million joules (1000000 J). The megajoule is commonly used to measure large amounts of energy, such as the energy content of fuels and the energy output of power plants.

Origin:

The megajoule is derived from the joule, which is named after James Prescott Joule, an English physicist. The prefix 'mega-' signifies a factor of one million, making the megajoule equal to one million joules.
