What are Kilopond meter and Horsepower hour

Definition of Kilopond meter

A Kilopond meter (kp·m) is a unit of work or energy in the metric system. It is defined as the work done by a force of one kilopond acting over a distance of one meter. In other words, it is the amount of energy expended when a kilopond (equivalent to the gravitational force on one kilogram) moves an object through a distance of one meter.

Definition of Horsepower hour

A Horsepower hour (hp·h) is a unit of energy that combines the power unit horsepower with the time unit hour. It represents the amount of work performed or energy used when a power output of one horsepower is sustained for one hour. This unit is not a standard SI unit of energy but is still used in certain contexts, mainly in engine output and electricity generation.
