Convert microwatt to newton meter/second
Please provide values below to convert microwatt [µW] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to microwatt.
How to Convert Microwatt to Newton Meter/second
1 µW = 1e-06 N*m/s
Example: convert 15 µW to N*m/s:
15 µW = 15 × 1e-06 N*m/s = 1.5e-05 N*m/s

Microwatt
A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt, used to measure very small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The microwatt was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to provide standardized units for small quantities of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, gaining prominence with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
Microwatts are used in fields such as electronics, telecommunications, and biomedical engineering to quantify low power levels in devices, sensors, and circuits.
Newton Meter/second
A unit of power representing one newton meter of work done per second, equivalent to a watt.
History/Origin
The newton meter/second has been used in physics and engineering to quantify power, especially in contexts involving torque and rotational work, aligning with the SI system's units for work and time.
Current Use
Primarily used in engineering and physics to measure power in systems involving torque and rotational motion, often interchangeably with watts in SI units.
