Convert exawatt to watts
Exawatt
The exawatt (EW) is a unit of power equal to 1018 watts. It is used primarily in theoretical physics and in the description of next-generation laser facilities aimed at achieving exawatt peak powers through pulse compression techniques. The total solar power intercepted by the Earth is approximately 1.74 × 1017 watts, making the exawatt a useful reference scale for planetary-scale energy phenomena.
Watt
The watt (symbol: W ) is a unit of power. In the International System of Units (SI) it is defined as a derived unit of 1 joule per second, and is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. In SI base units, the watt is described as kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −3 , which can be demonstrated to be coherent by dimensional analysis. The watt is named after James Watt, an 18th-century Scottish inventor.
