What does a femtojoule per second measure?

It measures an extremely small rate of power equal to 10^-15 joule per second, used primarily in nanoelectronics and experimental physics.

How much power is one hectowatt?

One hectowatt is equal to 100 watts and is commonly used to rate small household appliances and electric devices.

Why convert femtojoule/second to hectowatt?

This conversion helps relate exceedingly small power values used in scientific experiments to more familiar household power units for better understanding.
