Kinetic energy= mv2 /2
Units for mass in CGS-gm
Units for Velocity in CGS-cm/sec
Therefore Unit of KE in CGS=gm(cm/sec)2 = ergs
The unit of energy in the CGS system is the erg. It is a small unit of energy equal to 10^-7 joules.
The unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system is the erg.
CGS unit of time is Second,s.
The same units as for any type of energy. There is no special unit for kinetic energy.
Work is measured in joules.The unit of work is the joule (J).Please see the related link.The joule is the SI unit of work and heat.
The unit of energy in the CGS system is the erg. It is a small unit of energy equal to 10^-7 joules.
The unit of energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system is the erg.
The ratio of CGS unit to SI unit of energy is 1 CGS unit to 10^7 SI units. This means that 1 erg in CGS units is equivalent to 10^-7 joules in SI units when measuring energy.
kg
CGS unit of time is Second,s.
Heat is a form of energy. In terms of kinetic theory it can be defined asthe sum of kinetic energy of molecules in a sample of a substance.-- Its SI unit is the Joule.-- Its CGS unit is the erg = 10-7 joule.Comment'Heat' is energy in transit between a warmer body and a cooler body. The definition given in the original answer is for 'internal energy', not heat.
The same units as for any type of energy. There is no special unit for kinetic energy.
Work is measured in joules.The unit of work is the joule (J).Please see the related link.The joule is the SI unit of work and heat.
The cgs unit of temperature is the degree Celsius (°C).
The joule is the unit associated with kinetic energy
No, kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), as this is the SI unit for energy.
The unit used to measure kinetic energy is the joule (J).
