How to Convert horsepower to gigajoule/second
1 horsepower [hp, hp (UK)] = 7.456998715E-7 gigajoule/second [GJ/s]
1 gigajoule/second [GJ/s] = 1341022.0896 horsepower [hp, hp (UK)]
we use cross multiplication method
horsepower [hp, hp (UK)] → gigajoule/second [GJ/s]
1 → 7.456998715E-7
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*7.456998715E-7=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0000011185
