Step 1
It can be calculated using the formula P = F * v, where F is the force and v is the velocity. In this case, we know that the power output of the horse is 1 hp, which is approximately 745.7 Watts. We also know that the speed of the horse is 3 meters per Show more…

A 500 kg horse can provide a steady output power of 750 W (that is, 1 horsepower) when pulling a load. How about a 38 kg sled dog? Data show that a 38 kg dog can pull a sled that requires a pulling force of 60 N at a steady 2.2 m/s. What are the specific power values for the dog and the horse? What is the minimum number of dogs needed to provide the same power as one horse?

An engine expends $40.0$ hp in propelling a car along a level track at a constant speed of $15.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. How large is the total retarding force acting on the car? Remember that $1 \mathrm{hp}=745.7 \mathrm{~W}$.
