Convert attowatt to terajoule/second
Enter a value below to convert attowatt [aW] to terajoule/second [TJ/s]. Reverse conversion: Convert terajoule/second to attowatt.
1 aW = 1.0000e-30 TJ/s. To convert attowatt to terajoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e-30; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TJ/s = 1.0000e+30 aW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Attowatt to Terajoule/second: Quick Reference
- 1 aW = 1.0000e-30 TJ/s
- 1 TJ/s = 1.0000e+30 aW
- 10 aW = 1.0000e-29 TJ/s
- 100 aW = 1.0000e-28 TJ/s
How to Convert Attowatt to Terajoule/second
1 aW = 1e-30 TJ/s
Example: convert 15 aW to TJ/s:
15 aW = 15 × 1e-30 TJ/s = 1.5e-29 TJ/s

Attowatt: Definition and Use
An attowatt (aW) is a unit of power equal to 10^-18 watts, representing an extremely small amount of power.
History/Origin
The attowatt is part of the SI prefix system introduced to denote very small quantities, with 'atto-' representing 10^-18. It has been used mainly in scientific contexts to measure minuscule power levels.
Current Use
The attowatt is rarely used in practical applications but may be referenced in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics or nanotechnology.
Terajoule/second: Definition and Use
A terajoule per second (TJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillion joules of energy transferred or converted per second.
History/Origin
The terajoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'tera' indicating a factor of 10^12. It is used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very high power levels, especially in fields like astrophysics and energy production.
Current Use
TJ/s is used to quantify extremely high power outputs, such as in large-scale energy systems, astrophysical phenomena, and nuclear reactions, where conventional units like watts are insufficient to express the magnitude.
Attowatt to Terajoule/second: Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attowatt in terajoule/second?
1 attowatt (aW) = 1.0000e-30 terajoule/second (TJ/s).
How do you convert attowatt to terajoule/second?
Multiply the attowatt value by 1.0000e-30. For example, 25 aW × 1.0000e-30 = 2.5000e-29 TJ/s.
What is 10 attowatt in terajoule/second?
10 aW = 1.0000e-29 TJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the attowatt or the terajoule/second?
The terajoule/second is the larger unit: 1 aW equals only 1.0000e-30 TJ/s.
