Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
Joule/minute
Joule per minute (J/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in joules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The joule per minute has been used as a measure of power in various engineering and scientific contexts, especially where energy transfer rates are expressed over time, though it is less common than watts.
Current Use
J/min is used in specific applications such as industrial processes, heating systems, and other scenarios where power is measured over a minute, but it is generally converted to watts for standardization in scientific and technical fields.
