Convert pound-foot/second to picowatt
Please provide values below to convert pound-foot/second [lbf*ft/s] to picowatt [pW], or Convert picowatt to pound-foot/second.
1 lbf*ft/s = 1.3558e+12 pW. To convert pound-foot/second to picowatt, multiply the value by 1.3558e+12; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pW = 7.3756e-13 lbf*ft/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 lbf*ft/s = 1.3558e+12 pW

Pound-Foot/second
A pound-foot per second (lbf·ft/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, equivalent to one pound-force acting through a distance of one foot per second.
History/Origin
The pound-foot per second has been used primarily in engineering contexts within the Imperial system to quantify power, especially in mechanical and automotive applications, though it is less common than other units like horsepower.
Current Use
Today, the pound-foot per second is rarely used; it is mainly referenced in historical data or specific engineering calculations involving Imperial units, with the more standard unit of power being the horsepower or the watt in SI units.
Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
