Convert foot pound-force/minute to joule/second
Please provide values below to convert foot pound-force/minute [ft*lbf/min] to joule/second [J/s], or Convert joule/second to foot pound-force/minute.
1 ft*lbf/min = 0.02259696 J/s. To convert foot pound-force/minute to joule/second, multiply the value by 0.02259696; to go the other way, divide by it (1 J/s = 44.2537403261 ft*lbf/min). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Foot Pound-Force/minute
The foot pound-force per minute (ft*lbf/min) is a unit of power representing the amount of work done in foot-pounds over one minute.
History/Origin
This unit has been used primarily in engineering and mechanical contexts to measure power, especially in the United States, where imperial units are common. It originated from the foot-pound-force as a measure of work, combined with time to express power.
Current Use
The foot pound-force per minute is still used in certain engineering fields, particularly in the United States, for measuring power in mechanical systems, motors, and torque-related applications where imperial units are standard.
Joule/second
The joule per second (J/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to one watt.
History/Origin
The joule per second has been used as a measure of power since the adoption of the SI system, where the watt (W) became the standard unit of power, with 1 J/s = 1 W.
Current Use
J/s is primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify power, especially in physics and electrical engineering, often interchangeably with watts.
