About the Watt

Facts & Uses

  • Named after James Watt, inventor of the improved steam engine.
  • Core SI unit for power — rate of energy transfer per second.
  • Used universally in physics, electronics, and engineering.

Curiosities

  • A human at rest emits about 100 W of heat.
  • Modern LED lamps use 5–15 W with similar brightness to 60–100 W incandescent bulbs.

About the Horsepower

Facts & Uses

  • Traditional power unit used in automotive engines, pumps, and motors.
  • Varies slightly by region (mechanical, metric, boiler, water, electric).
  • 1 hp ≈ 0.746 kW — equivalent to the work of lifting 550 pounds one foot per second.

Curiosities

  • Coined by James Watt to market early steam engines.
  • Still used for marketing despite SI replacement by kilowatts.
