Convert watt • hour to horsepower • hour

Learn how to convert 1 watt • hour to horsepower • hour step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (w a t t \times h o u r) = x (h o r s e p o w e r \times h o u r)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(j o u l e)

Left side: 1.0 (w a t t \times h o u r) = 3.6 \times 10^{3} (j o u l e) = 3.6 \times 10^{3} (J)

Right side: 1.0 (h o r s e p o w e r \times h o u r) = 2647795.5 (j o u l e) = 2647795.5 (J)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (w a t t \times h o u r) = x (h o r s e p o w e r \times h o u r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 3.6 \times 10^{3} \times (j o u l e) = x \times 2647795.5 \times (j o u l e)

Or

1.0 \cdot 3.6 \times 10^{3} \cdot (J) = x \cdot 2647795.5 \cdot (J)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 3.6 \times 10^{3} \cdot (J) = x \times 2647795.5 \times (J)

Conversion Equation

3.6 \times 10^{3} = x \times 2647795.5

Switch sides

x \times 2647795.5 = 3.6 \times 10^{3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{2647795.5})

x \times 2647795.5 \times \frac{1.0}{2647795.5} = 3.6 \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{2647795.5}

Cancel

x \times 2647795.5 \times \frac{1.0}{2647795.5} = 3.6 \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{2647795.5}

Simplify

x = \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{2647795.5}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0013596216 \approx 1.3596 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (w a t t \times h o u r) \approx 1.3596 \times 10^{- 3} (h o r s e p o w e r \times h o u r)
