Convert erg/second to calorie (IT)/minute
Please provide values below to convert erg/second [erg/s] to calorie (IT)/minute [cal/min], or Convert calorie (IT)/minute to erg/second.
1 erg/s = 1.43307537976e-09 cal/min. To convert erg/second to calorie (IT)/minute, multiply the value by 1.43307537976e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cal/min = 697800000 erg/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Erg/second
The erg/second (erg/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion, where one erg per second equals the transfer of one erg of energy per second.
History/Origin
The erg is an older CGS (centimeter-gram-second) unit of energy, introduced in the early 20th century for scientific calculations. The erg/second was used in physics to quantify power in contexts where the CGS system was prevalent, especially in astrophysics and theoretical physics.
Current Use
Today, the erg/second is rarely used outside specialized scientific fields; the SI unit watt (W) is preferred for measuring power. However, erg/s may still be encountered in historical data, astrophysics, or when working with CGS-based calculations.
Calorie (It)/minute
Calorie per minute (cal/min) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and energy measurement, with the 'calorie per minute' emerging as a unit to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in contexts like exercise and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Calorie per minute is used in fields such as sports science, physiology, and energy expenditure analysis to measure the rate of caloric energy transfer or consumption over time.
