Key Terminology
-
Newton meter/second
-
A power unit equivalent to one joule per second (watt), measuring the rate of doing work or energy transfer.
-
Petajoule/second [PJ/s]
-
A very large power unit equal to 10^15 joules per second, used for describing vast energy flows and large-scale processes.
