SECTION - II

Derive a relationship between S.I. and C.G.S. unit of work.
Solution:  
The S.I. unit of work is joule (J) and the C.G.S. unit of work is erg.
‌1‌ joule ‌‌=1N×1m
‌ But ‌‌1N‌=105‌ dyne ‌
‌‌ and ‌‌1m‌=102‌cm
∴‌1‌ joule ‌‌=105‌ dyne ‌×102‌cm
‌=107‌ dyne-cm ‌=107‌erg
Thus, 1 joule =107‌erg .
