What are Kilogram-force Centimeter and Horsepower Hour

Definition of Kilogram-force Centimeter

Kilogram-force Centimeter (kgf·cm) is a unit of torque representing the rotational force generated by one kilogram-force acting at a one-centimeter radius. Torque is a measure of the turning force on an object such as a bolt or a flywheel. Thus, one kgf·cm is the torque resulting from a one kilogram-force applied to a lever one centimeter long from the pivot point.

Definition of Horsepower Hour

Horsepower Hour (hp·h) is a unit of energy that combines the mechanical power measurement of horsepower with the time span of an hour. It represents the work performed by a power output of one horsepower over the duration of one hour. Given that one horsepower is equivalent to 745.7 watts, a horsepower hour is equal to this power sustained for 3600 seconds, or 2,685,000 joules.
