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.
Kilojoule/minute
A kilojoule per minute (kJ/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of energy in kilojoules transferred or converted per minute.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per minute has been used as a unit of power in various scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields where energy transfer rates are measured over time, though it is less common than watts. Its usage has been consistent with the adoption of the SI system, where energy is measured in joules and power in watts.
Current Use
Today, the kilojoule per minute is primarily used in specialized fields such as nutrition, physics, and engineering to express energy transfer rates, particularly when dealing with larger quantities of energy over time, although the watt remains the standard SI unit for power.
