In theory one horse power equals 746 watts. They are both basic measures of power.
A 1 HP motor however draws more than 746 watts because to give a mechanical output of 1 HP/746 watts at the shaft, the motor has to draw more than 746 watts of electric power to cover losses in caused by resistance in the windings and the iron core of the motor, and friction in the bearings.
A typical efficiency for a motor would be 90% so that the electric power used would be 829 watts.

How much horsepower does 746 watts equal?
746 watts is equal to 1 horsepower. Horsepower is a unit of power that measures the rate at which work is done, and 1 horsepower is equivalent to 746 watts.
How much power is required by a 1 horsepower motor?
1 horsepower is the output power - the power produced. The power it uses is more, because no engine is 100% efficient. How much more, depends on the type of engine; an explosion engine (such as one that uses gasoline) is basically a heat engine, with an efficiency of perhaps 1/3; that means that about three times the output power is actually consumed. For an electrical motor, the required electricity will be only a little more than 1 horsepower (about 742 watts running current, more when the motor is getting started).
Is horsepower more than watts?
No - just different units. (1 hp = 746 watts)
How much horsepower is needed to move a box that has a force of 1492 newtons a distance of 2 meter in 1 second?
To determine the horsepower required, you first need to calculate the work done, which is force multiplied by distance (1492 N * 2 m = 2984 joules). Then, convert the work done to horsepower by dividing by the time taken (1 second) to get the power in watts (2984 joules / 1 second = 2984 watts). Finally, convert watts to horsepower by dividing by 746 (1 horsepower = 746 watts), giving you approximately 4 horsepower.
14 horsepower how many watts?
One HP equals 746 watts. So 4 HP = 2984 watts.
