  2. Engine power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_power

    Engine power is the power that an engine can put out. It can be expressed in power units, most commonly kilowatt, pferdestärke (metric horsepower), or horsepower.In terms of internal combustion engines, the engine power usually describes the rated power, which is a power output that the engine can maintain over a long period of time according to a certain testing method, for example ISO 1585.

  3. Power-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-to-weight_ratio

    A typical turbocharged V8 diesel engine might have an engine power of 250 kW (340 hp) and a mass of 380 kg (840 lb), [1] giving it a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 kW/kg (0.40 hp/lb). Examples of high power-to-weight ratios can often be found in turbines.

  4. Horsepower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower

    The Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt produced a maximum of 3.5 hp (2.6 kW) 0.89 seconds into his 9.58 second 100-metre (109.4 yd) sprint world record in 2009. [15] [failed verification] In 2023 a group of engineers modified a dynometer to be able to measure how much horsepower a horse can produce. This horse was measured to 5.7 hp (4.3 kW). [16]

  5. Orders of magnitude (power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(power)

    For reference, about 10,000 100-watt lightbulbs or 5,000 computer systems would be needed to draw 1 MW. Also, 1 MW is approximately 1360 horsepower . Modern high-power diesel-electric locomotives typically have a peak power of 3–5 MW, while a typical modern nuclear power plant produces on the order of 500–2000 MW peak output.

  6. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    The dimension of power is energy divided by time. In the International System of Units (SI), the unit of power is the watt (W), which is equal to one joule per second. Other common and traditional measures are horsepower (hp), comparing to the power of a horse; one mechanical horsepower equals about 745.7 watts.

  7. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    equivalent to approximately 114 megawatts of constant power output. The watt-second is a unit of energy, equal to the joule. One kilowatt hour is 3,600,000 watt seconds. While a watt per hour is a unit of rate of change of power with time, [iii] it is not correct to refer to a watt (or watt-hour) as a watt per hour. [36]

    Weight machines get a bad rap, but are perfect for beginners to boost form and target muscles safely. Plus, a full-body workout programmed by a pro.

  9. Power band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_band

    While engines and motors have a large range of operating speeds, the power band is usually a much smaller range of engine speed, only half or less of the total engine speed range [1] (electric motors are an exception—see the section on electric motors below). Specifically, power band is the range of RPM around peak power output.
