Explore our Horsepower (metric) to Exajoule/second Converter by Newtum. Quickly and accurately convert units with this intuitive tool. Stay tuned to understand how this conversion can simplify your calculations and enhance your efficiency.
Horsepower is a unit of measurement that quantifies power, or the rate at which work is done. Originally devised by engineer James Watt, horsepower was intended to compare the output of steam engines with the power of draft horses. In modern usage, it often measures the power output of engines and motors, particularly in automobiles and machinery. One metric horsepower equals approximately 735.5 watts. Although the widespread use of the metric system has led to the kilowatt becoming a more common unit of measurement, horsepower remains a popular and recognizable term in many industries.
Definition of Exajoule/secondExajoule per second is a unit of power in the International System of Units (SI), representing a vast amount of energy transfer per unit time. One exajoule per second equals 10^18 joules per second, indicating an incredibly high rate of energy conversion, often used in theoretical or highly specialized contexts. This unit highlights the energy flow in large systems, such as global energy consumption or astronomical phenomena, where conventional units like watts or kilowatts become impractical due to the sheer scale involved. As such, it provides a useful measure for scientists and engineers working with large-scale energy systems.
| Horsepower (hp) | Exajoule/second (EJ/s) |
|---|---|
| 1 hp | 7.46 × 10^-16 EJ/s |
| 10 hp | 7.46 × 10^-15 EJ/s |
| 20 hp | 1.49 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 30 hp | 2.24 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 40 hp | 2.98 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 50 hp | 3.73 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 60 hp | 4.48 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 70 hp | 5.22 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 80 hp | 5.97 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
| 90 hp | 6.71 × 10^-14 EJ/s |
1 hp = 7.46 × 10^-16 EJ/s
1 EJ/s = 1.34 × 10^15 hp
Example 1:
Convert 5 hp to EJ/s:
5 hp = 5 × 7.46 × 10^-16 EJ/s = 3.73 × 10^-15 EJ/s
Example 2:
Convert 3.5 hp to EJ/s:
3.5 hp = 3.5 × 7.46 × 10^-16 EJ/s = 2.61 × 10^-15 EJ/s
