What does femtojoule per second represent?

Femtojoule per second is a unit of power equal to 10^-15 watts, used to measure very small rates of energy transfer in nanoelectronics and physics.

Why convert femtojoule/second to megawatt?

Converting helps relate extremely small power measurements to large-scale power units common in power generation and industry.

Is this conversion practical for everyday power measurements?

No, due to the huge scale difference, this conversion is mainly for conceptual understanding rather than practical use.
