What does one foot pound-force per minute measure?

It measures the rate of doing mechanical work, representing one foot-pound-force of work performed each minute.

In which fields is picojoule per second commonly used?

It is used in microelectronics, photonics, and precision instrumentation to quantify extremely small continuous power levels.

Why might converted values be very large when using this tool?

Because foot pound-force per minute is much larger than picojoule per second, converting units results in large numerical values.
