User Guide

Use this calculator to determine the power in watt, kilowatt or horsepower units, produced by a moving object with a specified applied force and velocity.

Formula

The formula used by this calculator to determine the power from the applied force and speed of a moving object is:

P = F * v

Symbols

• P = Power output
• F = Force applied
• v = Velocity

Force (F)

This is the force applied to move the object.

Velocity (v)

This is the velocity or speed of the moving object.

Power (P)

This is the rate at which energy is transferred per unit of time to move the object.
