What does one terajoule per second represent?

One terajoule per second is a power unit equal to an energy transfer rate of one terajoule (10^12 joules) per second, equivalent to 10^12 watts or one terawatt.

When is a femtowatt unit used?

A femtowatt quantifies extremely small power levels, useful for describing low-level signals in fields like radio astronomy, ultra-sensitive photodetection, and nanoscale electronics.

Why convert from TJ/s to femtowatt?

This conversion allows translating very large power readings into units suitable for extremely small power phenomena, aiding comparative analysis in diverse scientific and engineering disciplines.
