Converting from Joule per Second (J/s) to Horsepower, Mechanical (hp) | Power

What is Joule per Second (J/s)

Joule per second (J/s) is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred when one joule of energy is converted or transferred in one second.

What is Horsepower, Mechanical (hp)

Horsepower, Mechanical (hp) is an imperial unit of power commonly used in the automotive and engineering industries. It is a measure of the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, equivalent to 745.6999 watts.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between Joule per second (J/s) and Horsepower, Mechanical (hp) are as follows:

* 1(J/s)=0.001341022(hp)

* 1(hp)=745.6999(J/s)

Examples

1. Converting 13 J/s to hp:

13(J/s)=13×0.001341022=0.01743329(hp)

2. Converting 4 hp to J/s:

4(hp)=4×745.6999=2982.799(J/s)

3. Converting 10 J/s to hp:

10(J/s)=10×0.001341022=0.01341022(hp)
