What does 1 megajoule per second represent?

One megajoule per second equals one million joules of energy transferred each second, equivalent to one megawatt.

Why convert MJ/s to kilocalorie (IT)/second?

The conversion aids in understanding power rates in thermal and biomedical contexts where kilocalorie (IT)/second units are traditionally used.

Is kilocalorie (IT)/second commonly used today?

No, it is less common in modern engineering but remains relevant in older literature and certain specialized analyses.
