What does one terawatt represent?

One terawatt is an SI unit of power equal to 10^12 watts, often used to express very large energy generation or transfer rates.

When would I use femtojoule per second as a power unit?

Femtojoule per second is used to quantify extremely small rates of energy transfer, especially in nanoelectronics, quantum physics, and experimental setups.

Why is converting between terawatts and femtojoule per second important?

This conversion helps bridge scales between very large power quantities and ultra-small power dissipation events, useful in comparing diverse scientific and engineering phenomena.
