What are Megajoule and Erg

Definition of Megajoule

A megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one million joules. It's a substantial amount of energy, often used in scientific or engineering contexts to measure large-scale energy transfers such as in electricity generation or large-scale mechanical work.

Definition of Erg

An erg is a small unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, equivalent to one dyne centimeter. It's a very tiny amount of energy, highlighting the precision required in scientific calculations. One erg is equal to 10^-7 joules, demonstrating its use in applications where minute energy measurements are crucial.
