Convert horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) to attojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) [hp] to attojoule/second [aJ/s], or Convert attojoule/second to horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s).
1 hp = 7.4570e+20 aJ/s. To convert horsepower (550 ft*lbf/s) to attojoule/second, multiply the value by 7.4570e+20; to go the other way, divide by it (1 aJ/s = 1.3410e-21 hp). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp = 7.4570e+20 aJ/s
- 1 aJ/s = 1.3410e-21 hp
- 10 hp = 7.4570e+21 aJ/s
- 100 hp = 7.4570e+22 aJ/s
How to Convert Horsepower (550 Ft*lbf/s) to Attojoule/second

Horsepower (550 Ft*lbf/s)
Horsepower (hp) is a unit of power measurement, defined as 550 foot-pounds of work per second (ft·lbf/s).
History/Origin
The horsepower was developed by James Watt in the late 18th century to compare the power of steam engines with draft horses, and it became a standard unit for measuring engine power.
Current Use
Horsepower is still widely used today to rate the power of engines and motors in automotive, aviation, and industrial applications.
Attojoule/second
An attojoule per second (aJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion of one attojoule (10^-18 joules) per second.
History/Origin
The attojoule is a relatively recent SI prefix introduced to measure extremely small quantities of energy, and its use in power units like aJ/s has emerged with advancements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, though it remains a specialized unit with limited historical usage.
Current Use
The aJ/s is used in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics, nanotechnology, and energy transfer studies at the atomic or molecular scale.
