Conversion Formula

Factor

1 nW=1e11 hW1\ \mathrm{nW} = 1e-11\ \mathrm{hW}

Formula

hW=nW÷1e+11\mathrm{hW} = \mathrm{nW} \div 1e+11

Unit Description

Nanowatt (nW)

Definition

A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10⁻⁹ W). It represents incredibly small amounts of power found in advanced microelectronics, quantum devices, and ultra-sensitive scientific instruments.

History

The nanowatt became relevant with the development of nanotechnology and quantum electronics. It provided a scale for describing power levels in quantum devices, advanced semiconductors, and ultra-sensitive measurement systems where power consumption approaches fundamental limits.

Current Use

Nanowatts are used in nanotechnology, quantum electronics, ultra-sensitive instruments, and advanced research applications. They're essential for quantum device specifications, nanoelectronics, and precision scientific measurements at the molecular level.

Hectowatt (hW)

Definition

A hectowatt (hW) is a unit of power equal to one hundred watts (10² W). It represents moderate power levels found in small appliances, lighting systems, and medium-scale electrical equipment.

History

The hectowatt developed as part of the metric system's decimal structure, providing an intermediate unit between kilowatts and watts. It became useful for describing power consumption of small appliances and lighting systems where watts would be large numbers.

Current Use

Hectowatts are used for small appliance ratings, lighting system specifications, and medium-scale electrical equipment. They're found in specifications for small motors, lighting installations, and electrical systems requiring moderate power levels.

Conversion Examples

Convert 1 Nanowatt to Hectowatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 nW = 1e-11 hW
  2. Conversion Formula: hW = nW ÷ 1e+11
  3. Calculation: 1 nW ÷ 1e+11 = 1e-11 hW

Convert 10 Nanowatt to Hectowatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 nW = 1e-11 hW
  2. Conversion Formula: hW = nW ÷ 1e+11
  3. Calculation: 10 nW ÷ 1e+11 = 1e-10 hW

Convert 100 Nanowatt to Hectowatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 nW = 1e-11 hW
  2. Conversion Formula: hW = nW ÷ 1e+11
  3. Calculation: 100 nW ÷ 1e+11 = 1e-9 hW

Convert 1,000 Nanowatt to Hectowatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 nW = 1e-11 hW
  2. Conversion Formula: hW = nW ÷ 1e+11
  3. Calculation: 1,000 nW ÷ 1e+11 = 1e-8 hW
