How to Convert kilojoule/second to horsepower
1 kilojoule/second [kJ/s] = 1.3410220896 horsepower [hp, hp (UK)]
1 horsepower [hp, hp (UK)] = 0.7456998716 kilojoule/second [kJ/s]
we use cross multiplication method
kilojoule/second [kJ/s] → horsepower [hp, hp (UK)]
1 → 1.3410220896
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1.3410220896=1*x
by simplifying
x=2.0115331344
