Gigajoule to erg converter (gj to erg)

Conversion Formula

1 gj = 10.00P erg

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Gigajoule = 1.00G joules
   1 Erg = 1.00e-7 joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 gj = (1.00G J) / (1.00e-7 J/erg) = 10.00P erg
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in gj by 10.00P to get the equivalent in erg

Example Conversion

Convert 5 gj to erg:

5 gj × 10.00P = 50.00P erg
