Ergs to Megajoules

Convert ergs (erg) to megajoules (MJ) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.

Ergs (erg)

erg

Megajoules (MJ)

1 erg = 1e-13 MJ

Full precision:1e-13 MJ

Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 ergs to megajoules, we divide by 1e+13 because one megajoule equals exactly 1e+13 ergs.

1 megajoule = 1e+13 ergs

Since there are 1e+13 ergs in every megajoule, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 1e+13 = 1e-13 megajoules

So 1 ergs = 1e-13 megajoules.

✓Quick check: 1e-13 × 1e+13 = 1 ergs

How to Convert Ergs to Megajoules

To convert ergs to megajoules, divide the value by 1e+13.

Megajoules = Ergs ÷ 1e+13

1 megajoule = 1e+13 ergs

Tip: To convert megajoules back to ergs, multiply by 1e+13.

Example 1: 1 erg = 1e-13 MJ
1 ÷ 1e+13 = 1e-13

Example 2: 5 erg = 5e-13 MJ
5 ÷ 1e+13 = 5e-13

Example 3: 10 erg = 1e-12 MJ
10 ÷ 1e+13 = 1e-12
