Convert horsepower (metric) to nanojoule/second

Please provide values below to convert horsepower (metric) [hp (metric)] to nanojoule/second [nJ/s], or Convert nanojoule/second to horsepower (metric).




How to Convert Horsepower (Metric) to Nanojoule/second

1 hp (metric) = 735498750000 nJ/s

Example: convert 15 hp (metric) to nJ/s:
15 hp (metric) = 15 Γ— 735498750000 nJ/s = 11032481250000 nJ/s

Horsepower (Metric)

The metric horsepower (hp) is a unit of power defined as exactly 735.5 watts, used to measure the power output of engines and motors.

History/Origin

The metric horsepower was introduced in the late 19th century as a standardized unit to quantify engine power, primarily in Europe, replacing traditional units like the imperial horsepower. It was adopted for consistency in engineering and automotive industries.

Current Use

Today, the metric horsepower is used mainly in automotive, engineering, and industrial contexts to specify engine power, especially in regions that utilize the metric system. It is also used in some countries for rating motor and engine capacities.


Nanojoule/second

A nanojoule per second (nJ/s) is a unit of power representing the transfer or conversion of one nanojoule of energy per second.

History/Origin

The nanojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'nano' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It is used in contexts requiring very small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering fields.

Current Use

The nJ/s is used in scientific research, nanotechnology, and precise energy transfer measurements where extremely low power levels are involved, often in the context of nanoscale systems or experiments.
