Terawatt
A terawatt (TW) is a unit of power equal to one trillion watts (10^12 watts).
History/Origin
The term 'terawatt' was introduced as part of the metric system to quantify extremely large power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production, gaining prominence in the 20th century with advancements in large-scale energy and power measurement.
Current Use
Terawatts are used to describe the total power output of large-scale energy sources, such as the total global power consumption, solar radiation received by Earth, and astrophysical phenomena.
Calorie (It)/minute
Calorie per minute (cal/min) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy in calories is transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The calorie has been used historically in nutrition and energy measurement, with the 'calorie per minute' emerging as a unit to quantify energy transfer rates, especially in contexts like exercise and metabolic studies.
Current Use
Calorie per minute is used in fields such as sports science, physiology, and energy expenditure analysis to measure the rate of caloric energy transfer or consumption over time.
