What does one picojoule per second represent?

It is a power unit equal to 10⁻¹² joules per second, often applied to very small continuous power levels in electronics and photonics.

Where is kilocalorie (IT) per minute commonly used?

It is used to express energy transfer rates such as human metabolic energy expenditure or small-scale thermal processes measured in nutritional energy units.

Why convert picojoule/second to kilocalorie (IT)/minute?

To relate tiny power measurements to more intuitive or domain-specific energy rates relevant in physiology, fitness, or heating contexts.
