How to Convert Kilojoule/second to Femtojoule/second
1 kJ/s = 1e+18 fJ/s
Example: convert 15 kJ/s to fJ/s:
15 kJ/s = 15 × 1e+18 fJ/s = 1.5e+19 fJ/s

Kilojoule/second
A kilojoule per second (kJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one kilojoule of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The kilojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), and has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure power, especially in fields like physics and energy studies.
Current Use
It is used to quantify power in various applications, including electrical power, mechanical power, and energy transfer rates, particularly where kilojoules and seconds are the relevant units.
Femtojoule/second
A femtojoule per second (fJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one femtojoule (10^-15 joules) per second.
History/Origin
The femtojoule/second unit emerged with the development of high-precision measurements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, where extremely small energy transfer rates are relevant. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'femto' denoting 10^-15.
Current Use
The femtojoule/second is used in scientific research to quantify very small power levels, particularly in fields like nanotechnology, quantum computing, and molecular physics, where energy transfer rates are extremely low.
