What are Foot and Centiwatt

Definition of Foot

The 'Foot' is a unit of length in various systems, including the imperial and US customary systems, and is primarily used in the United States. Historically, it was based on the length of a human foot, but it has now been standardized to equal exactly 0.3048 meters. The foot is divided into 12 inches. Although the metric system is widely used globally, the foot remains popular in countries like the U.S. for measuring shorter distances and heights.

Definition of Centiwatt

A Centiwatt, denoted as cW, is a unit of power equivalent to one hundredth of a watt. Power, in this context, refers to the rate of energy utilization or transfer. The watt, the standard unit of power in the International System of Units (SI), measures the rate of energy conversion. Centiwatts are often used in contexts where very small amounts of power are involved, providing a more precise measurement without resorting to decimals. This unit is particularly useful in microelectronics and other fields where power levels are minimal.
