Convert millijoule/second to petajoule/second

Please provide values below to convert millijoule/second [mJ/s] to petajoule/second [PJ/s], or Convert petajoule/second to millijoule/second.

1 mJ/s = 1.0000e-18 PJ/s. To convert millijoule/second to petajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e-18; to go the other way, divide by it (1 PJ/s = 1.0000e+18 mJ/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 mJ/s = 1.0000e-18 PJ/s
  • 1 PJ/s = 1.0000e+18 mJ/s
  • 10 mJ/s = 1.0000e-17 PJ/s
  • 100 mJ/s = 1.0000e-16 PJ/s



How to Convert Millijoule/second to Petajoule/second

1 mJ/s = 1e-18 PJ/s

Example: convert 15 mJ/s to PJ/s:
15 mJ/s = 15 × 1e-18 PJ/s = 1.5e-17 PJ/s

Millijoule/second

A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.

History/Origin

The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.

Current Use

Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.


Petajoule/second

A petajoule per second (PJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one petajoule of energy every second.

History/Origin

The petajoule (PJ) is a metric unit of energy introduced as part of the International System of Units (SI) to measure large quantities of energy. The concept of power in terms of energy per unit time has been fundamental in physics, with the watt (W) as the SI base unit. The petajoule per second emerged as a large-scale unit for high-energy power measurements, especially in fields like energy production and scientific research.

Current Use

Petajoule per second is used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify extremely high power levels, such as in nuclear energy, large-scale power generation, and astrophysics. It is also used in theoretical and large-scale energy calculations where conventional units like watts are insufficient.


Frequently Asked Questions

What is 1 millijoule/second in petajoule/second?

1 millijoule/second (mJ/s) = 1.0000e-18 petajoule/second (PJ/s).

How do you convert millijoule/second to petajoule/second?

Multiply the millijoule/second value by 1.0000e-18. For example, 25 mJ/s × 1.0000e-18 = 2.5000e-17 PJ/s.

What is 10 millijoule/second in petajoule/second?

10 mJ/s = 1.0000e-17 PJ/s.

Which unit is larger, the millijoule/second or the petajoule/second?

The petajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 mJ/s equals only 1.0000e-18 PJ/s.
