Millijoule/second
A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.
History/Origin
The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.
Current Use
Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.
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.
