What does 1 nanojoule per second represent?

It represents a power of one nanowatt, equating to 10⁻⁹ joules transferred or converted every second.

Where is the kilocalorie (IT)/minute unit commonly used?

It is typically used for expressing energy transfer rates in metabolic studies and small-scale heating or cooling applications.

Why is this conversion important?

It helps express very small continuous power values in units standard to nutrition, physiology, and thermal energy, facilitating interpretation in these domains.
