horsepower (hôrs′pou′ər) A unit used to measure the power of engines and motors. One unit of horsepower is equal to the power needed to lift 550 pounds one foot in one second. This unit has been widely replaced by the watt in scientific usage. (hp) A unit of work representing the power needed to raise 550 lb by 1 ft in 1 s.

What is the meaning of BHP and torque in bikes or cars? Torque is how strong your engine is and Horsepower is a measure of how fast it can use that power. That is why a Diesel engine with 400Nm of Torque cannot out-accellerate a petrol car with 400Nm of Torque. Horsepower is calculated by multiplying the amount of torque by the RPM of the engine (and dividing by 5,252.

Talk:Celsius In physics, power (symbol: P) is the rate at which work is performed. In the SI system of measurement, power is measured in watts (symbol: W). This can be modeled as an energy flow, equivalent to the rate of change of the energy in a system, or the time rate of doing work.

What Is the Formula for Work Output? The work output or Power refers to the rate at which work is done. Power is measured in watts. Power is also sometimes measured in horsepower, where one horsepower is equal to 750 watts. Work output can be calculated using the formula Work done/time. For instance, if an electric motor raises a 1000kg beam, 4 meters in 10 seconds, where g is equal to 9.8,m/s, then the power is calculated as: Work done/time = Force*distance/time = (1000*9.8)*4 /10 = 3920 watts.

- Most people can name two units of power, few can name even one unit of energy. And yet, power just means energy flow per unit time. We all know the Watt is a unit of power consumption and have an idea how quickly a 1500 Watt kettle boils water. The unit of energy is the Joule - a Watt is just a flow of one Joule per second. The other popular unit of power is the horsepower. The conversion is that one horsepower = 756 Watts. A 100-HP car would be able to turn a 75,600 - Watt electrical generator, or 75.6 kilowatts.

What is the difference between torque and horsepower in automobiles? Horsepower is defined as the amount of energy required to lift 550 pounds, one foot, in one second. From this definition you can see that the components of horsepower are force, distance and time. Distance and time are self-explanatory but force, specifically a twisting force, is what torque is all about. wrench applies torque to a bolt. A motor or engine provides torque to do work. Horsepower is the measurement of the work done or … ability to do work. This is done by taking the speed the engine is operating at (RPM) and what torque it is producing and applying a formula to give a horsepower rating.

What is the meaning of torque and power in a car in layman terms? If you say a car has a particular torque at 3000 rpm and power at 4500rpm, what does it mean? As you may have already read, horsepower is just a function of torque and engine speed. First some definitions: Horsepower is the rating that describes how powerful an engine is. Torque can be described as how flexible or how much force can be expressed in a given gear.

How Many? A Dictionary of Units of Measurement Â© Russ  Rowlett and the University of North Carolina at Chapel  HillTable of  ContentsAbout the DictionaryUsing the DictionaryW Power is the rate at which work is done, or (equivalently) the rate at which energy is expended. One watt is equal to a power rate of one joule of work per second of time. This unit is used both in mechanics and in electricity, so it links the mechanical and electrical units to one another. In mechanical terms, one watt equals about 0.001 341 02 horsepower (hp) or 0.737 562 foot-pound per second (lbf/s).
