Convert petajoule/second to volt ampere

Please provide values below to convert petajoule/second [PJ/s] to volt ampere [V*A], or Convert volt ampere to petajoule/second.




How to Convert Petajoule/second to Volt Ampere

1 PJ/s = 1e+15 V*A

Example: convert 15 PJ/s to V*A:
15 PJ/s = 15 × 1e+15 V*A = 1.5e+16 V*A

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.


Volt Ampere

Volt ampere (V·A) is a unit of apparent power in an electrical circuit, representing the product of voltage and current without considering power factor.

History/Origin

The volt ampere was established as a unit of apparent power with the development of electrical engineering, particularly as a measure in alternating current (AC) systems. It is derived from the SI units volt (V) and ampere (A).

Current Use

Volt ampere is used to quantify apparent power in AC electrical systems, especially in the context of transformers, generators, and power supplies, to assess capacity and performance.
