Convert attowatt to kilojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert attowatt [aW] to kilojoule/second [kJ/s], or Convert kilojoule/second to attowatt.
1 aW = 1.0000e-21 kJ/s. To convert attowatt to kilojoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e-21; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kJ/s = 1.0000e+21 aW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aW = 1.0000e-21 kJ/s
- 1 kJ/s = 1.0000e+21 aW
- 10 aW = 1.0000e-20 kJ/s
- 100 aW = 1.0000e-19 kJ/s
How to Convert Attowatt to Kilojoule/second
1 aW = 1e-21 kJ/s
Example: convert 15 aW to kJ/s:
15 aW = 15 × 1e-21 kJ/s = 1.5e-20 kJ/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.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attowatt in kilojoule/second?
1 attowatt (aW) = 1.0000e-21 kilojoule/second (kJ/s).
How do you convert attowatt to kilojoule/second?
Multiply the attowatt value by 1.0000e-21. For example, 25 aW × 1.0000e-21 = 2.5000e-20 kJ/s.
What is 10 attowatt in kilojoule/second?
10 aW = 1.0000e-20 kJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the attowatt or the kilojoule/second?
The kilojoule/second is the larger unit: 1 aW equals only 1.0000e-21 kJ/s.
