What does megajoule per second measure?

Megajoule per second (MJ/s) measures the rate of energy transfer or conversion, equivalent to one million joules per second and commonly known as one megawatt.

When would I use foot pound-force per minute?

Foot pound-force per minute is typically used for measuring small mechanical power outputs in imperial units, often found in legacy engineering documents or for small tools and manual equipment.

Why is the conversion from MJ/s to foot pound-force per minute useful?

This conversion helps express very large power values from modern SI units into an imperial scale, facilitating interpretation in industries or applications that rely on traditional mechanical power units.
