The Boeing 757 typically uses two Pratt & Whitney PW2040 or Rolls-Royce RB211-535 engines, each producing around 20,000 to 26,000 pounds of thrust. To convert this thrust to horsepower, one can use the conversion factor where 1 pound of thrust is approximately equal to 1.5 horsepower. Thus, each engine produces roughly 30,000 to 39,000 horsepower, depending on the specific engine variant and its settings.
