Examples
1
Consider that a mobile phone consumes 500 milliwatts (mW) of power while in standby mode.
Convert this power consumption from milliwatts to Watts.
Answer:
Given:
The power in milliwatts is:
Power(Milliwatts) = 500
Formula:
The formula to convert power from milliwatts to watts is:
Power(Watts) = Power(Milliwatts) / 1e3
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Power(Milliwatts) = 500 in the above formula.
Power(Watts) = 500 / 1e3
Power(Watts) = 0.5
Final Answer:
Therefore, 500 mW is equal to 0.5 W.
The power is 0.5 W, in watts.
2
Consider that a smartwatch operates on 200 milliwatts (mW) of power.
Convert this power usage from milliwatts to Watts.
Answer:
Given:
The power in milliwatts is:
Power(Milliwatts) = 200
Formula:
The formula to convert power from milliwatts to watts is:
Power(Watts) = Power(Milliwatts) / 1e3
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Power(Milliwatts) = 200 in the above formula.
Power(Watts) = 200 / 1e3
Power(Watts) = 0.2
Final Answer:
Therefore, 200 mW is equal to 0.2 W.
The power is 0.2 W, in watts.

Milliwatts
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt. It is often used in contexts where power levels are low, such as in electronics and communications.
Watts
The watt (W) is the SI unit of power, defined as one joule per second. It is used to measure the rate of energy transfer and is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including electricity, mechanics, and heating.
