Attojoule/second
An attojoule per second (aJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion of one attojoule (10^-18 joules) per second.
History/Origin
The attojoule is a relatively recent SI prefix introduced to measure extremely small quantities of energy, and its use in power units like aJ/s has emerged with advancements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, though it remains a specialized unit with limited historical usage.
Current Use
The aJ/s is used in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics, nanotechnology, and energy transfer studies at the atomic or molecular scale.
Foot Pound-Force/second
The foot pound-force per second (ft·lbf/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of work done or energy transferred, where one foot pound-force is the work done when a force of one pound-force moves an object one foot.
History/Origin
The foot pound-force per second has been used historically in engineering and physics, especially in the United States, as a practical unit of power in mechanical and thermodynamic contexts before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
Current Use
Today, the foot pound-force per second is primarily used in certain engineering fields, such as mechanical and aerospace engineering, for expressing power in systems where imperial units are standard, though it is less common with the global shift towards SI units.
