Watts represent the rate of using energy. (Joules per second). 1 lb is a weight.
It's like asking how many sheep per second are equal to a house.
One horsepower is approximately equal to 745.7 watts.
In electrical terms, 1 horsepower (HP) is equal to approximately 746 watts.
In electrical energy, watts is the product of volts x amperes x power factor. The power factor is equal to 1 in the case of DC, and close to 1 in many other cases; so you can often simply ignore it. In other words, you need to measure volts, and amperes.In principle, you could also measure watts via the conversion of electrical energy into some other type of energy - for example, heat, if you use the energy to heat water. (Note: watts = joules / second.)
A joule is a joule, whether it be electrical energy or light energy - although commonly, lamps are not 100% efficient.On the other hand, you can't convert joules directly to watts. Watts means joules per second (joules / second), or equivalently, joules is watts times seconds.A joule is a joule, whether it be electrical energy or light energy - although commonly, lamps are not 100% efficient.On the other hand, you can't convert joules directly to watts.

1.58 kilowatts are equal to 1580 watts.
Watt means joules/second. It refers to the amount of energy a device uses, in this case. Multiply the power (in watts) by the time (in seconds) to get the energy (in joules).
The human brain generates about 20 watts of electrical power.
5500 watts is equal to 5.5 kilowatts.
1hp = 745.7 watts
A horsepower is equal to 746 watts, so 10 x 746 = 7,460 watts.
Oh, honey, 500VA is equal to 500 watts. VA stands for volt-amps, which is the apparent power in an electrical circuit, while watts are the real power. So, in this case, they're one and the same. Hope that lights up your day!
The definition is that 746 watts equal one horse-power.
