What are Gram-force Meter and Erg

Definition of Gram-force Meter

A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque representing the amount of force in grams multiplied by the distance in meters from the axis of rotation. One gf·m is the torque resulting from a one gram-force applied perpendicularly to a one-meter long lever arm.

Definition of Erg

An erg is a unit of energy or work in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It is equivalent to the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimeter. In other systems, one erg is equivalent to 10^-7 joules.

History of Gram-force Meter and Erg

The Gram-force Meter to Erg Converter has its roots in the transition from the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system to the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system. As erg is a CGS unit of energy and gf·m is related to the MKS system's newton-meter, the converter serves as a bridge between these two measurement systems.
