Convert erg to cubic foot of atmosphere

Learn how to convert 1 erg to cubic foot of atmosphere step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (e r g) = x (c u b i c f o o t o f a t m o s p h e r e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(j o u l e)

Left side: 1.0 (e r g) = 10^{- 7} (j o u l e) = 10^{- 7} (J)

Right side: 1.0 (c u b i c f o o t o f a t m o s p h e r e) = 2869.2044809344 (j o u l e) = 2869.2044809344 (J)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (e r g) = x (c u b i c f o o t o f a t m o s p h e r e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 7} \times (j o u l e) = x \times 2869.2044809344 \times (j o u l e)

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 7} \cdot (J) = x \cdot 2869.2044809344 \cdot (J)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 7} \cdot (J) = x \times 2869.2044809344 \times (J)

Conversion Equation

10^{- 7} = x \times 2869.2044809344

Switch sides

x \times 2869.2044809344 = 10^{- 7}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2869.2044809344})

x \times 2869.2044809344 \times \frac{1.0}{2869.2044809344} = 10^{- 7} \times \frac{1.0}{2869.2044809344}

Cancel

x \times 2869.2044809344 \times \frac{1.0}{2869.2044809344} = 10^{- 7} \times \frac{1.0}{2869.2044809344}

Simplify

x = \frac{10^{- 7}}{2869.2044809344}

Solve

x

x \approx 3.4852866244 \times 10^{- 11} \approx 3.4853 \times 10^{- 11}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (e r g) \approx 3.4853 \times 10^{- 11} (c u b i c f o o t o f a t m o s p h e r e)
