Convert picowatt to newton meter/second
Please provide values below to convert picowatt [pW] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to picowatt.
How to Convert Picowatt to Newton Meter/second
1 pW = 1e-12 N*m/s
Example: convert 15 pW to N*m/s:
15 pW = 15 Γ 1e-12 N*m/s = 1.5e-11 N*m/s

Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
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.
