Convert millijoule/second to terawatt
Please provide values below to convert millijoule/second [mJ/s] to terawatt [TW], or Convert terawatt to millijoule/second.
1 mJ/s = 1.0000e-15 TW. To convert millijoule/second to terawatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e-15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TW = 1.0000e+15 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-15 TW
- 1 TW = 1.0000e+15 mJ/s
- 10 mJ/s = 1.0000e-14 TW
- 100 mJ/s = 1.0000e-13 TW
How to Convert Millijoule/second to Terawatt
1 mJ/s = 1e-15 TW
Example: convert 15 mJ/s to TW:
15 mJ/s = 15 × 1e-15 TW = 1.5e-14 TW

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.
Terawatt
A terawatt (TW) is a unit of power equal to one trillion watts (10^12 watts).
History/Origin
The term 'terawatt' was introduced as part of the metric system to quantify extremely large power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production, gaining prominence in the 20th century with advancements in large-scale energy and power measurement.
Current Use
Terawatts are used to describe the total power output of large-scale energy sources, such as the total global power consumption, solar radiation received by Earth, and astrophysical phenomena.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 millijoule/second in terawatt?
1 millijoule/second (mJ/s) = 1.0000e-15 terawatt (TW).
How do you convert millijoule/second to terawatt?
Multiply the millijoule/second value by 1.0000e-15. For example, 25 mJ/s × 1.0000e-15 = 2.5000e-14 TW.
What is 10 millijoule/second in terawatt?
10 mJ/s = 1.0000e-14 TW.
Which unit is larger, the millijoule/second or the terawatt?
The terawatt is the larger unit: 1 mJ/s equals only 1.0000e-15 TW.
