Unit definitions

Hectowatt

$10^{2}$ watts is a hectowatt.

Watt

The watt is the SI unit of power. It is defined as one joule per second ($1\ \text{W} = 1\ \text{J/s}$).

How to convert Hectowatt to Watt

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = \text{Power}_{\text{hW}} \cdot {10}^{2}$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $50.0\ \text{hW}$ to $\text{W}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 50.0 \cdot {10}^{2}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 5000$$

$$\therefore \ 50.0\ \text{hW} = 5000 \ \text{W}$$

Example 2

Convert $85.0\ \text{hW}$ to $\text{W}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 85.0 \cdot {10}^{2}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 8500$$

$$\therefore \ 85.0\ \text{hW} = 8500 \ \text{W}$$

Example 3

Convert $115.0\ \text{hW}$ to $\text{W}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 115.0 \cdot {10}^{2}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 11500$$

$$\therefore \ 115.0\ \text{hW} = 11500 \ \text{W}$$

Example 4

Convert $135.0\ \text{hW}$ to $\text{W}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 135.0 \cdot {10}^{2}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 13500$$

$$\therefore \ 135.0\ \text{hW} = 13500 \ \text{W}$$

Example 5

Convert $175.0\ \text{hW}$ to $\text{W}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 175.0 \cdot {10}^{2}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{W}} = 17500$$

$$\therefore \ 175.0\ \text{hW} = 17500 \ \text{W}$$
