Convert attowatt to newton meter/second
Please provide values below to convert attowatt [aW] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to attowatt.
How to Convert Attowatt to Newton Meter/second
1 aW = 1e-18 N*m/s
Example: convert 15 aW to N*m/s:
15 aW = 15 × 1e-18 N*m/s = 1.5e-17 N*m/s

Attowatt
An attowatt (aW) is a unit of power equal to 10^-18 watts, representing an extremely small amount of power.
History/Origin
The attowatt is part of the SI prefix system introduced to denote very small quantities, with 'atto-' representing 10^-18. It has been used mainly in scientific contexts to measure minuscule power levels.
Current Use
The attowatt is rarely used in practical applications but may be referenced in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics or nanotechnology.
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.
