Tenth of a microjoule crossword clue
28 Down · WSJ Crossword, May 28, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Tenth of a microjoule” is ERG. It appears as 28 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of May 28, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “Capital Gains” by Jake Halperin, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 6, column 9 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with E and ends with G, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
