What does one pound-foot per minute represent?

It represents the rate of doing work when a force of one pound-force moves through one foot in one minute, an imperial unit of mechanical power.

Why are attojoules per second used?

Attojoules per second measure extremely small power levels, useful for characterizing energy transfer in ultra-low-power microelectronic and quantum devices.

Is this conversion suited for practical engineering and scientific purposes?

Yes, it helps translate legacy imperial power measurements into the tiny power ranges needed for nanoscale and quantum technology applications.
