What does one pound-foot per second represent?

It is an Imperial unit of power measuring the rate of mechanical work performed per second, defined as one pound-force foot of work per second.

What is a millijoule per second [mJ/s] used for?

It measures power at low levels, such as in electronic sensors, microcontrollers, or laboratory lasers, representing 0.001 joules per second.

Why convert pound-foot/second to millijoule/second?

Converting enables translation of mechanical power data from Imperial units to precise, low-power metric units suitable for microscale and electronic applications.
