To convert from Megawatt (MW) to Horsepower (British) (hp), use the following formula:
Horsepower (British) (hp)
=106×0.737562149×5501× Megawatt (MW)
=1341.0220890909090909× Megawatt (MW)
With 0.737562149 is the ratio between the base units Foot-pound per second (ft-lb/s) and Watt (W).
Let's convert 5 Megawatt (MW) to Horsepower (British) (hp).
Using the formula:
5×1341.0220890909090909=6705.1104454545454545
Therefore, 5 Megawatt (MW) is equal to 6705.1104454545454545 Horsepower (British) (hp).
A Megawatt (MW) is a unit of power in the metric system, equal to one million Watts (106 W). The plural form is Megawatts.
A Horsepower (British) (hp) is a unit of power in the imperial system, equal to 550 Foot-pounds per second (ft-lb/s). The plural form is Horsepower (British).
The metric system is a decimal-based system of measurement used by nearly every country in the world. Its key feature is the use of prefixes to denote multiples and submultiples of the base units by powers of ten.
The imperial system is a system of measurement that was first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824. It's known for using units like inches, feet, pounds, and gallons. While most of the world now uses the metric system, the imperial system remains the official system of measurement in the United States and is still used in specific contexts in other countries, such as the United Kingdom and Canada.
