Milliwatt (mW)


The milliwatt (symbol: mW) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one-thousandth of a watt:


1 mW=0.001 W1 \text{ mW} = 0.001 \text{ W}

The prefix "milli-" means one-thousandth, making the milliwatt useful for measuring small amounts of power, such as in low-power electronic devices, wireless transmitters, or LED lights.


For example, the power output of a typical laser pointer or a small radio transmitter is often measured in milliwatts.


Milliwatts are widely used in various fields, including electronics, communications, and medical devices, due to their convenience in expressing low power levels without resorting to very small decimal numbers.



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).
