By Horsepower if you mean engine ouput ? If so these days it is often expressed in kilowatts rather than horsepower (1HP=0.746kW)
To convert horsepower (hp) to another unit, you would need to specify the unit you want to convert 179 into. However, if you're asking how much 179 is in terms of horsepower, then it is simply 179 hp, as it is already expressed in that unit. If you need a conversion to a different unit, please specify, and I can help with that!
3730 watts is equal to approximately 5 horsepower.
A watt is simply the SI unit for power, and the horsepower is the Imperial unit for power. Power is simply the rate of doing work, so there is no such thing as 'electrical' or any other, 'sort' of power. In Europe, a car's engine output power ('brake power') is expressed in kilowatts as the horsepower is considered obsolete.
Horsepower is abbreviated to hp. It is a unit of measurement that represents the power of an engine.
Electrical power is also measured in Watts.
Horsepower is not a unit of mass.

The definition of horsepower is a unit of power equal to 746 watts. Therefore, a cow has no horsepower.
Power is typically expressed in watts, which represent the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred. It can also be expressed in other units such as horsepower, kilowatts, or BTUs per hour depending on the context.
Motors are only rated in horsepower in North America, in most other countries, they are rated in watts. The reason for doing so, is that a motor's power is always expressed in terms of its output power -that is the maximum power it can supply to its mechanical load. If, as in North America, a mechanical load is expressed in horsepower, then so is the output of the motor; if, as elsewhere, a mechanical load is expressed in watts, then so is the output of the motor.Don't forget a horsepower is simply the Imperial unit for power, whereas the watt is the SI (metric) equivalent. 1 HP = 746 watts.
Horsepower
No, horsepower is not an SI (International System of Units) unit. It is a unit of power used predominantly in the United States and some other countries to measure the rate at which work is done.
