Convert horsepower (electric) to attojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (electric) [hp (electric)] to attojoule/second [aJ/s], or Convert attojoule/second to horsepower (electric).
1 hp (electric) = 7.4600e+20 aJ/s. To convert horsepower (electric) to attojoule/second, multiply the value by 7.4600e+20; to go the other way, divide by it (1 aJ/s = 1.3405e-21 hp (electric)). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Horsepower (Electric)
Electric horsepower (hp) is a unit of power used to measure the rate at which electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy or work, equivalent to approximately 746 watts.
History/Origin
The electric horsepower was developed as an adaptation of the mechanical horsepower to quantify electrical power output, especially in electric motors and generators. It became a standard unit in electrical engineering to express the power of electric motors and appliances.
Current Use
Electric horsepower is used primarily in specifying the power of electric motors, generators, and other electrical devices, particularly in industries where electrical power measurement is essential for performance and efficiency assessments.
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.
