Deciwatt (dW)


The deciwatt (symbol: dW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one-tenth of a watt:


1 dW=0.1 W1 \text{ dW} = 0.1 \text{ W}

The prefix "deci-" means one-tenth, so a deciwatt represents a small amount of power, useful for measuring low-power devices or signals.


However, deciwatts are not commonly used in everyday situations. Instead, power is often expressed directly in watts (W), milliwatts (mW), or microwatts (µW) for smaller quantities.


Although valid, the deciwatt is relatively rare in practical applications.



Megawatt (MW)


The megawatt (symbol: MW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10610^{6} watts:


1 MW=1,000,000 W1 \text{ MW} = 1,000,000 \text{ W}

Megawatts are commonly used to express the power output of medium to large-sized power plants, such as wind farms, solar plants, and small hydroelectric stations. For example, a typical wind turbine might produce around 2 to 3 MW of power.


In practical terms, 1 megawatt can supply electricity to roughly 1,000 average homes.


The megawatt is a convenient scale for measuring electrical generation and consumption on a regional or city level, bridging the gap between smaller household power use (kilowatts) and larger industrial or national-scale power (gigawatts).
