What does 1 terajoule/second represent in power terms?

It represents an energy transfer rate of one terajoule per second, equivalent to 10^12 watts or one terawatt.

How is pound-foot/minute used in mechanical power?

Pound-foot/minute measures mechanical power as the rate of work when a pound-force moves through one foot in one minute, often for small shaft or rotary power.

Why convert from terajoule/second to pound-foot/minute?

To translate large-scale power values into imperial units for comparing legacy machinery power ratings and evaluating smaller mechanical devices.
