Motorcycle and scooter Power Knowledge

The horsepower was originally formulated by the French and Germans, but because they measure horsepower, they are a kind of pony that is smaller than the average horse. Therefore, with a 50-horsepower engine, it is impossible to imagine a 50-horsepower pull. If you are driving on a motorcycle/motorbike, you should imagine that 35 horses are more appropriate. The use of (ps) to represent the horsepower unit was the first symbol used by the Germans, and it has been used until now.

What is 1 horsepower? 1 horsepower is the force required to raise an object weighing 75 kilograms (kg) by 1 meter (m) in 1 second, which is called 1 horsepower. In the daily specification table, such as: 70ps/8000 rpm , Which means that the engine can produce 70 horsepower at 8,000 revolutions per minute.

rpm is the English abbreviation for engine revolutions per minute.

What is torque? Torque is also called torque, which is the moment that causes the shaft to rotate. The common unit of torque in XXX is kg-m (the international unit is Nm).

In order to better understand the concept of torque, here are a few examples. For example: Use a screwdriver or wrench to tighten the screw. If the length of the screwdriver or wrench is 1m, add 1kg force to one end of the screwdriver or wrench, then the tightening torque of the screw It is 1kg-m. If the length of the screwdriver or wrench is 0.5m, in order to obtain a torque of 1kg-m, a force of 2kg must be applied. The reverse is also true. If the driving torque is the same, the farther the position is from the center of rotation, the smaller the force generated.
