What does 1 millijoule per second represent?

It represents a power unit equal to 0.001 joules per second, that is 0.001 watt or 1 milliwatt, often used to measure low power consumption.

Why use foot pound-force per minute as a unit?

It is a non-SI imperial unit measuring mechanical power at a rate of one foot-pound-force of work performed each minute, useful in legacy engineering and mechanical applications.

Can this converter be used for high power values?

No, it is intended for very low power levels; for large powers, other units are more suitable.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts power measurements from millijoule per second (mJ/s), a unit often used for low-power electronic systems, into foot pound-force per minute, a non-SI unit of mechanical power. It helps translate energy transfer rates between metric and imperial unit systems.

How to Use This Tool?

Input the power value in millijoule per second (mJ/s) into the converter.
Select the target unit as foot pound-force per minute.
Click the convert button to see the equivalent power in foot pound-force per minute.
Review the result and use it for applications requiring imperial units.

Key Features

Converts low-range power values from millijoule/second to foot pound-force/minute.
Supports unit translation between SI and imperial measurement systems.
Provides clear formulas and example calculations.
Useful for handling legacy engineering data and mechanical power estimations.
Browser-based and easy to use for various technical fields.

Examples

Convert 5 mJ/s: 5 × 0.044253729 = 0.221268645 foot pound-force/minute
Convert 10 mJ/s: 10 × 0.044253729 = 0.44253729 foot pound-force/minute

Common Use Cases

Specifying power consumption of low-power electronics such as sensors and wearables.
Measuring output power of low-power LEDs and laboratory lasers.
Estimating power in small mechanical tools, manual winches, or low-power pumps using imperial units.
Translating microscopic power measurements into mechanical power for legacy engineering documentation.

Tips & Best Practices

Always verify that the power levels are in the low range appropriate for these units.
Consider the unit differences in time measurement: foot pound-force uses minutes while millijoule per second uses seconds.
Use this conversion for compatibility with legacy or imperial system-based engineering requirements.
Double-check calculations especially if converting for scientific or precise engineering purposes.

Limitations

Foot pound-force per minute is a non-SI unit and is less precise for scientific calculations compared to watts.
Conversion is primarily meaningful for very low power values; higher power levels require other units.
The unit relates mechanical work to a minute rather than the standard second, which may complicate dynamic system analysis.
