Convert microjoule/second to petajoule/second
Please provide values below to convert microjoule/second [µJ/s] to petajoule/second [PJ/s], or Convert petajoule/second to microjoule/second.
1 µJ/s = 1.0000e-21 PJ/s. To convert microjoule/second to petajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e-21; to go the other way, divide by it (1 PJ/s = 1.0000e+21 µJ/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 µJ/s = 1.0000e-21 PJ/s
- 1 PJ/s = 1.0000e+21 µJ/s
- 10 µJ/s = 1.0000e-20 PJ/s
- 100 µJ/s = 1.0000e-19 PJ/s
How to Convert Microjoule/second to Petajoule/second
1 µJ/s = 1e-21 PJ/s
Example: convert 15 µJ/s to PJ/s:
15 µJ/s = 15 × 1e-21 PJ/s = 1.5e-20 PJ/s

Microjoule/second
The microjoule per second (µJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion, where one microjoule equals 10^-6 joules, transferred per second.
History/Origin
The microjoule per second originated from the need to measure very small power levels in scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields like electronics and nanotechnology, as a scaled-down unit of the watt (joule per second).
Current Use
It is used in applications requiring precise measurement of low power levels, such as in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), sensor technology, and research involving minute energy transfers.
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.
