What does one exawatt represent?

One exawatt (EW) equals 10^18 watts and measures extremely large power levels, often used in planetary or astrophysical contexts.

Why use calorie (IT)/second as a unit of power?

Calorie (IT)/second quantifies the heat energy transferred each second and is used mainly in thermal power and heat-transfer applications.

Is calorie (IT)/second an SI unit?

No, calorie (IT)/second is a non-SI unit commonly employed in thermal analysis rather than standard SI measurements.
