What are Femtowatt and Calorie

Definition of Femtowatt

A Femtowatt is a unit of power defined as one quadrillionth of a watt (10^-15 watts). It is part of the metric system and is used to express extremely low power levels, typically encountered in fields such as quantum physics and nanotechnology. The term 'femto' is derived from the Danish word 'femten', meaning fifteen, indicating the power of ten. While not commonly used in everyday scenarios, femtowatts are essential for measuring the minute power outputs in advanced scientific research and precision engineering.

Definition of Calorie

A Calorie, often referred to as a 'small calorie' or 'gram calorie', is a unit of energy. It is defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at one atmospheric pressure. In scientific contexts, especially in physics and chemistry, the calorie is an important unit for quantifying energy transformations. However, the more commonly known 'Calorie' in dietary contexts is actually a kilocalorie, equivalent to 1,000 small calories, used to express the energy content in food.

Conversion of Femtowatt to Calorie

1 fW = 0.0000000000000143 cal/min
1 cal/min = 69,767,441,860,465 fW

Example 1:
convert 50 fW to cal/min:
50 fW = 50 × 0.0000000000000143 cal/min = 0.000000000000715 cal/min

Example 2:
convert 200 fW to cal/min:
200 fW = 200 × 0.0000000000000143 cal/min = 0.00000000000286 cal/min
