Convert petawatt to newton meter/second
Please provide values below to convert petawatt [PW] to newton meter/second [N*m/s], or Convert newton meter/second to petawatt.
1 PW = 1.0000e+15 N*m/s. To convert petawatt to newton meter/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e+15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 N*m/s = 1.0000e-15 PW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 PW = 1.0000e+15 N*m/s
- 1 N*m/s = 1.0000e-15 PW
- 10 PW = 1.0000e+16 N*m/s
- 100 PW = 1.0000e+17 N*m/s
How to Convert Petawatt to Newton Meter/second
1 PW = 1e+15 N*m/s
Example: convert 15 PW to N*m/s:
15 PW = 15 × 1e+15 N*m/s = 1.5e+16 N*m/s

Petawatt
A petawatt (PW) is a unit of power equal to 10^15 watts, used to measure extremely high power levels.
History/Origin
The petawatt was introduced in the 1980s as part of the SI prefixes to describe ultra-high power outputs, particularly in laser physics and astrophysics research.
Current Use
Petawatts are primarily used in scientific research involving high-intensity lasers, astrophysics, and nuclear physics to quantify extremely large power outputs.
Newton Meter/second
A unit of power representing one newton meter of work done per second, equivalent to a watt.
History/Origin
The newton meter/second has been used in physics and engineering to quantify power, especially in contexts involving torque and rotational work, aligning with the SI system's units for work and time.
Current Use
Primarily used in engineering and physics to measure power in systems involving torque and rotational motion, often interchangeably with watts in SI units.
