Convert newton meter to erg
Please provide values below to convert newton meter [N*m] to erg [erg], or Convert erg to newton meter.
1 N*m = 10000000 erg. To convert newton meter to erg, multiply the value by 10000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 erg = 1e-07 N*m). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 N*m = 10000000 erg
- 1 erg = 1e-07 N*m
- 10 N*m = 100000000 erg
- 100 N*m = 1000000000 erg
How to Convert Newton Meter to Erg
1 N*m = 10000000 erg
Example: convert 15 N*m to erg:
15 N*m = 15 × 10000000 erg = 150000000 erg

Newton Meter
A newton meter (N·m) is a unit of torque or energy, representing the amount of force applied over a distance.
History/Origin
The newton meter was established as a standard unit of torque and energy in the International System of Units (SI) to provide a consistent measurement for mechanical work and rotational force.
Current Use
It is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify torque in mechanical systems and to measure energy in contexts such as physics calculations and energy conversions.
Erg
The erg is a unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, defined as the amount of work done when a force of one dyne displaces an object by one centimeter.
History/Origin
The erg was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the CGS system of units, primarily used in physics to measure small amounts of energy before the adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the erg is largely obsolete and rarely used outside of specific scientific contexts, with the SI unit joule being the standard for energy measurement. It remains relevant in some fields like astrophysics and theoretical physics.
