Horsepower is the rate at which torque is produced. James Watt is credited with being the first person to calculate horsepower and power. He measured the amount of work a horse could do within a specific time. A horse could move 330 pounds 100 feet in 1 minute. Therefore, he determined that one horse could do 33,000 ft.-lb of work in 1 minute. Thus, 1 horsepower is equal to 33,000 ft.-lb per minute, or 550 ft.-lb per second.

What Is A Newton Meter Equal To
Horsepower (hp) is a unit of measurement of power, or the rate at which work is done, usually about the output of engines or motors. There are many different standards and types of horsepower. Two common definitions used today are the mechanical horsepower (or imperial horsepower), which is about 745.7 watts, and the metric horsepower, which is approximately 735.5 watts.
Newton;s second law: I chose this because in Newton's second the car in this case would only move based on two factors, the force being put on the car, or just the mass of the car, so that is why this person wouldn;t be able to move this car.
