Exawatt
An exawatt (EW) is a unit of power equal to 10^18 watts.
History/Origin
The exawatt is part of the SI prefix system, introduced to represent extremely large power quantities, especially in theoretical physics and astrophysics, as the need to express vast energy outputs grew.
Current Use
Exawatts are primarily used in scientific contexts to describe the power output of large-scale phenomena such as stars and cosmic events; they are rarely used in everyday measurements.
Pound-Foot/minute
Pound-foot per minute (lbf·ft/min) is a unit of power representing the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, specifically the amount of work in pound-feet performed per minute.
History/Origin
The pound-foot per minute has been used historically in engineering and mechanical contexts to measure power, especially in systems where imperial units are prevalent. It is derived from the foot-pound unit of work, divided by time in minutes, aligning with traditional British engineering practices.
Current Use
Today, pound-foot per minute is primarily used in specific engineering fields, such as mechanical and automotive industries, to measure torque-related power outputs, though it is less common than SI units like watts or horsepower.
