  2. Horse body mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_body_mass

    Ponies can weigh less than 200 kg and heavy horses more than a ton, [3] while the average weight of a saddle horse is estimated at around 500 kg. Champion show-jumper Jappeloup de Luze, for example, weighed around 470 kg. [4] Heavy horses bred for slaughter reach particularly high weights, as it's in the breeder's interest to get maximum meat ...

  3. Bite force quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bite_force_quotient

    Bite force quotient (BFQ) is a numerical value commonly used to represent the bite force of an animal adjusted for its body mass, while also taking factors like the allometry effects.

  4. Kleiber's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleiber's_law

    Kleiber's plot comparing body size to metabolic rate for a variety of species. [1]Kleiber's law, named after Max Kleiber for his biology work in the early 1930s, states, after many observations that, for a vast number of animals, an animal's Basal Metabolic Rate scales to the 3 ⁄ 4 power of the animal's mass.

  7. 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.

  8. Magdeburg hemispheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magdeburg_hemispheres

    Thirty horses, in two teams of fifteen, could not separate the hemispheres until the valve was opened to equalize the air pressure. In 1656 he repeated the demonstration with sixteen horses (two teams of eight) in his hometown of Magdeburg, where he was mayor. He also took the two spheres, hung the two hemispheres with a support, and removed ...

  9. Weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight

    The SI unit of weight is the same as that of force: the newton (N) – a derived unit which can also be expressed in SI base units as kg⋅m/s 2 (kilograms times metres per second squared). [21] In commercial and everyday use, the term "weight" is usually used to mean mass, and the verb "to weigh" means "to determine the mass of" or "to have a ...
