Convert nanojoule/second to terawatt
Please provide values below to convert nanojoule/second [nJ/s] to terawatt [TW], or Convert terawatt to nanojoule/second.
1 nJ/s = 1.0000e-21 TW. To convert nanojoule/second to terawatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e-21; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TW = 1.0000e+21 nJ/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 nJ/s = 1.0000e-21 TW
- 1 TW = 1.0000e+21 nJ/s
- 10 nJ/s = 1.0000e-20 TW
- 100 nJ/s = 1.0000e-19 TW
How to Convert Nanojoule/second to Terawatt
1 nJ/s = 1e-21 TW
Example: convert 15 nJ/s to TW:
15 nJ/s = 15 × 1e-21 TW = 1.5e-20 TW

Nanojoule/second
A nanojoule per second (nJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one nanojoule of energy per second.
History/Origin
The nanojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'nano' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It is used in contexts requiring very small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering fields.
Current Use
The nJ/s is used in scientific research, nanotechnology, and precise energy transfer measurements where extremely low power levels are involved, often in the context of nanoscale systems or experiments.
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 nanojoule/second in terawatt?
1 nanojoule/second (nJ/s) = 1.0000e-21 terawatt (TW).
How do you convert nanojoule/second to terawatt?
Multiply the nanojoule/second value by 1.0000e-21. For example, 25 nJ/s × 1.0000e-21 = 2.5000e-20 TW.
