What is metric unit power?
It is A Watt.
Is a kilowatt part of the metric system?
Yes. "Kilo" is a prefix that means "a factor of thousand", and "watt" is the SI unit of power (rate of energy transfer). 1 watt = 1 joule/second.
What is the metric equivalent of the US unit of horsepower?
The metric unit of power is the 'watt', and of course its power-of-ten multiples and submultiples are used where necessary to produce convenient numbers. Probably the closest to the horsepower is the 'kilowatt' = about 1.3405 HP .
The amount of work done per unit of time?
Work done per unit of time is defined as power. In the metric system, this unit is a watt. In the standard system, it is horsepower.
What is the SI unit and symbol for power?
The SI unit for power is the watt, symbolized as W.
What is metric unit power?
It is A Watt.
How is the measurement of power expressed in the metric system?
The unit of power in the S.I. system (the most commonly used metric system) is the "Watt", named after British physicist James Watt. One Watt is a rate of energy transfer of one Joule per second.
In what metric unit is power measured?
The basic metric unit for electrical power measurement is the watt, which is equal to one joule per second.
What is the metric unit for measuring power?
-- Joule per second-- Watt
What is the units for horsepower?
Horsepower is a measure of power, the metric unit of power is the watt. One watt is one joule per second.
Is a kilowatt part of the metric system?
Yes. "Kilo" is a prefix that means "a factor of thousand", and "watt" is the SI unit of power (rate of energy transfer). 1 watt = 1 joule/second.
Which of the following is the proper unit for measuring power?
You gave no examples to choose from. Power is Energy divided by time. P = E/t In the metric system, the unit of power is the Watt. One Watt is one Joule per second, energy divided by time, 1 J/s. Power is the rate of change of energy.
What is named after James Watt?
james watt is remembered for measuring the power of his steam engine: his test with a strong horse resulted in his determination that a "horsepower"was 550 foot-pounds per second. The unit of power in the metric system is called the watt; one horsepower equals 746 watts.
What is the difference between power and watt?
Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, while watt is the unit of power in the International System of Units (SI). Watt specifically measures the rate at which energy is used or produced.
What is a word for unit of power?
A "watt" is a derived unit of power.
What is the metric equivalent of the US unit of horsepower?
