Does it have anything to do with a horse? I read on another sub that one horse at full speed can produce 15 horsepower, how do you divide up a hose to get 1 horse power? Is it horsepower or horse power (you may have noticed I’ve been indecisive and used both)?
In:
It’s just another way of saying 745 watts of power. It was originally measured by a horse lifting 250kg of water. When referring to this measurement, it’s horsepower. When referring to the actual power of a horse, I suppose you could use two words.
