Kilowatt

$10^{3}$ watts is a kilowatt.

Hectowatt

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

How to convert Kilowatt to Hectowatt

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = \text{Power}_{\text{kW}} \cdot {10}^{1}$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $40.0\ \text{kW}$ to $\text{hW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 40.0 \cdot {10}^{1}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 400$$

$$\therefore \ 40.0\ \text{kW} = 400 \ \text{hW}$$

Example 2

Convert $80.0\ \text{kW}$ to $\text{hW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 80.0 \cdot {10}^{1}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 800$$

$$\therefore \ 80.0\ \text{kW} = 800 \ \text{hW}$$

Example 3

Convert $120.0\ \text{kW}$ to $\text{hW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 120.0 \cdot {10}^{1}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 1200$$

$$\therefore \ 120.0\ \text{kW} = 1200 \ \text{hW}$$

Example 4

Convert $140.0\ \text{kW}$ to $\text{hW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 140.0 \cdot {10}^{1}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 1400$$

$$\therefore \ 140.0\ \text{kW} = 1400 \ \text{hW}$$

Example 5

Convert $180.0\ \text{kW}$ to $\text{hW}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 180.0 \cdot {10}^{1}$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hW}} = 1800$$

$$\therefore \ 180.0\ \text{kW} = 1800 \ \text{hW}$$
