10 Joules -> ergs/s
To convert Joules to ergs per second (erg/s), you need to understand the relationship between the two units of energy.
1 Joule is equal to 10^7 ergs. This conversion factor is based on the definition of the Joule and erg units.
Now, let's calculate the conversion from 10 Joules to ergs per second:
Step 1: Convert Joules to ergs:
10 Joules * (10^7 ergs/1 Joule) = 10^8 ergs
Step 2: Convert the total amount of energy to ergs per second:
10^8 ergs / 1 second = 10^8 ergs/s
Therefore, 10 Joules is equal to 10^8 ergs/s.
