What does 1 joule per minute represent?

It is a power unit showing the rate of energy transfer averaged over one minute, equal to 1/60 of a watt.

Why convert joule/minute to metric horsepower?

To express small-scale or averaged power measurements in a widely recognized mechanical power unit used in automotive and industrial applications.

Are converted values from J/min to horsepower typically large?

No, because joule per minute is a very small unit compared to metric horsepower, resulting in small decimal values after conversion.
