What does femtowatt measure?

A femtowatt measures extremely small power levels and rates of energy transfer, typically in nanoscale or sensitive electronic systems.

What is calorie (IT) per minute used for?

Calorie (IT) per minute is used to indicate rates of heat transfer in scientific fields such as calorimetry, thermal engineering, and metabolic studies.

Can this conversion handle large power values?

No, this conversion is intended for very low power values since femtowatts represent extremely small magnitudes.
