Re: Gearbox -physics related question
Power is the amount of work done per unit of time.
Work is the application of force over a distance. In the case of a car engine, horsepower is not actually measured directly, instead it is calculated as the product of torque and angular velocity (rpm) then you should be wondering about why it is that torque and work have the same units ![]() |
